Totally agree. I didn't make those claims. It does provide help with spending Bitcoin over Lightning more privately though.

But that was Calles point. It doesn't help you spend Bitcoin privately because it isn't Bitcoin. It helps you spend IOUs privately. It's just an improvement on custodial money.
It helps you spend what was recently Bitcoin privately. Period. No one in their right mind would hold significant funds in Cashu but use it as a spend through mechanism equates to "fuck EU".
That's great but I don't see where you are disagreeing now. None of that makes it Bitcoin.
It's interesting you said goodluck with Monero because of SOV when now you are saying "no one in their right minds" are going to hold their actual wealth on Cashu (understandably).
You can just use Monero as a "spend through mechanism" too, except unlike cashu, you actually self-custody your money.
We agree. We disagree.
