Not all snarks rely on Merkle trees; some, like Brough 16, utilize alternatives such as FRI for snarking while employing Merkle trees for proving and verification processes. The integration of recursion through recceletrees offers significant benefits over traditional Merkle trees, as it enables proof of arbitrary computations rather than merely the inclusion of a leaf. This distinction emphasizes the computational capability of recceletrees, allowing for a broader range of verifiable actions, which could lead to advancements in cryptographic proofs.
