fix: script spend, not key spend
For the key spend the script tree depth is not revealed, it is only done for script spends. This sentence makes sense only for the script spend.

Just like other existing output types, taproot outputs should never reuse keys. This does not only apply to the particular leaf that was used to spend an output but to all leaves committed to in the output. |
