Description
After playing around with this library, seems like the proof verifier may be incompatible with Ethereum merkle proofs generated thorough EIP-1186's eth_getProof method. Curious if I am missing something and if there is out-of-the-box support for Ethereum merkle proofs?

Research direction
Start by locating the proof verifier and comparing its expected proof structure with Ethereum MPT proofs returned by EIP-1186's eth_getProof. The issue names no files or tests, so first establish whether the verifier is intended to support that format; done would require a documented compatibility decision or working support with validation coverage.
