Opaque doesn’t use a hash-to-curve operation.

CPace does; it also automatically aborts (fails) if the hash-to-curve operation happens to return a low order point (that is, a point that, after multiplying by the cofactor, is the neutral element).

I don’t know if the same holds for OPAQUE or CPace: for all I know, they may have specification holes and/or end in failure in that case.
