AI take
This is an early-stage signalling move rather than a live security fix: the deposit contract is the entry point for staking, so hardening it touches the validator set's foundation, not just wallet-level crypto. The practical tension is that post-quantum schemes are heavier and less battle-tested, and any change to a contract this entrenched carries migration and backward-compatibility questions. Whether the proposal advances past discussion or stalls into a longer research track is the open question worth watching.
