Perhaps title 'Bech32m address format for native v0-16 segregated
witness outputs' should probably be v1-16?

This is a thorough and clear write up; a superb read.

Side note: I am deeply impressed with your mathematical jujitsu that no
bech32 string is also a valid bech32m string *even with three errors*.

This sways me even more that this approach is correct.

Untested-Ack.

Thanks,
Rusty.
