The ERC712R repository that’s being reviewed here, adds a refund option. With the goal of adding this feature to both the ERC721 and ERC1155 standards.
According to the implementation documentation, refund is one of the elements of bringing accountability to the NFT ecosystem and a way to protect users from rugpulls. The refund system added to this version of the standard is trustless.

After minting an NFT in a collection created with ERC721R, the funds are held in escrow by the smart contract. As long as the funds remain in escrow, they can’t be withdrawn by the NFT creator. During this time, the buyer can return the NFT and get their money back.
In case a rugpull happens, the buyers can receive a full refund minus the gas transaction costs, if the waiting period isn’t over.
