The documentation is clear on clearing Bandersnatch cofactor: https://hackmd.io/@6iQDuIePQjyYBqDChYw_jg/BJBNcv9fq#Bandersnatch-Subgroup
However it is unclear if this also applies for Banderwagon.
Clearing cofactor is necessary for a generic test suites for endomorphism acceleration (see #298)
The alternatives are:
(1-aX²)/p = 1
There is no cofactor to clear since the curve is of prime order. However we can move from Bandersnatch to Banderwagon by adapting the deserialization strategy.

which is not ideally if probability is low as it will slow down CI.
