Moreover, for two different valid x-coordinates, the resulting representatives of the corresponding encoding calls are different. Conversely, this means that we can't decode both representatives back to their original x-coordinate. This is why the sender eventually tries a number of random key pairs in GenerateElligatorKeyPair() in order to create a valid public key that can be used
