The current risk to taproot and all future activations is a loud
minority of users who are threatening to co-opt a LOT=3Dfalse activation
by switching the parameter and organizing a marketing blitz that could
end in a fork if things don't go well.
As long as that threat persists consensus won't be reached. Then an
activation client probably won't be released because I don't expect
many devs will have an appetite for writing code that either doesn't
have consensus or code that will be manipulated into creating
consensus conflicts.
I think Bitcoin is fine staying as is until that minority forks off
with their own alt-node. If the UASF minority is dead set on creating
the alt-node then I only hope it's released quickly so the deadlock
can break. A quick UASF fork allows for an early LOT=3Dfalse activation.

Cheers
