IT IS ALMOST LIKE THEY DESIGNED WHIRLPOOL TO HANDLE THIS EXACT SITUATION

YES! ONE MIGHT THINK THAT!
Whirlpool makes the situation horribly worse by wasting block space with "premix" and "postmix" transactions 💩
WabiSabi coinjoins allow you to mix and send directly to your destination in a single transaction, without leaking common input ownership and without creating any unspendable "toxic change" 🎭
Don’t waste your time, his VC firm invests in Samourai. Incentives are stacked against giving Wabisabi a fair review.
Premix and Postmix Transactions are not wasteful at all.
I recommend reading more about Whirlpool architecture:
I just read the doc, it didn't explain at all why you would do a premix trasaction. You can go directly from the deposit account to the postmix account, premixing first just wastes block space (and hurts your privacy).
And on a sidenote:
Whirlpool transactions are valid Bitcoin transactions with fully paid for fees. It doesn't make any situation 'horribly worse'.
Toxic change is spendable, but it comes with privacy implications.
Swaps or their future multi party Tx0 transactions will fix that as well.
The tx0 premix transaction makes the block space consumption and privacy horribly worse for Whirlpool compared to skipping the premix and coinjoining directly:
