Where is the private key for smart wallet?

In Timeless X, you have access to two types of wallets: a regular wallet (EOA) and a smart wallet (the one with the AA tag).
The seed phrases or private keys of regular wallets can be exported following specific guidelines here. However, the AA-tagged wallets, being smart wallets, inherently lack seed phrases or private keys. These wallets are essentially programmable smart contracts on the blockchain, different from regular wallets, and thus cannot be imported into regular wallets like Metamask due to compatibility issues.
The Timeless X smart wallet is fundamentally a smart contract, devoid of seed phrases or private keys for recovery. Access to this wallet is maintained as long as you have control over the associated signer account. This signer account could either be the regular wallet created within Timeless X or a regular wallet linked to the smart wallet.
