Question about address format #2

Running this script I noticed the address format is not the same as what we get from Daedalus. As the script author, do you possibly have any insight into this difference?

I found the following information on the Cardano site https://cardanodocs.com/cardano/addresses/ but that doesn't explain the format we see in Daedalus either.

This script only generates Cardano Wallet Ids (CWID). What you see in Daedalus Wallet are the hardened HD addresses which are derived from the root secretkey. That HD address generation is quite complicated that's why it's not implemented in this script.

Thank you for the explanation and the work on the script. I'll go ahead and close the issue..
