The new potentially useful thing it has is a mechanism where the person fetching an invoice can create an associated payer key. I was thinking how you might leverage that for more reliable proofs that you actually paid an invoice, but you still don’t get a proof that its real or anything, which is probably not possible without tons of complexity.
I remember trying to make this work with bolt12 before bolt11 but then just gave up and used bolt11+lnurl. I think it was the right call at the time.
