I guess I'm special. It's been quite long time since I last used anything onchain that's not taproot. The only non-taproot is when using lightning.
(just to highlight for other readers - Taproot is now 10% by output value and 20% by output count)
Could go all-in with Taproot Channels... why the hesitation?
Simple Taproot Channels are just being developed, there's no actual prod solution yet. Acinq is making the most progress here from what I can tell.

All my LN channels are STC (where is possible with the peer) from long time ago. And are perfectly fine.
Even chantools is supporting them now.
Yeah, I realized this below too. Brainfart on my side.
LND has had them since v17
I completely forgot that LND actually did them. Well, so I think I'll be on taproot channels soon :)
Not all your counterparties will support it. For example, last time I tried to open a private channel with SN it was not supported.
... Or even a material amount across all addresses total.
Proponents would seem to be either afraid of using it, or lied about their urgent use-cases all along.
On a purely relative basis, a proponents burden of proof is that they're no less "safe" than address types with a longer track record... But they won't put any skin in the game on their experiment.
