Yes one is a physical good and one is a digital “good” so they have different characteristics however a sat is interchangeable for another sat this is what fungibility is. They are equal. Traceability is a person liability not a bitcoin liability. Just like cash be traced to illegal activity is a personal liability not a liability to cash.

Why does our grandma or non-techy friends need to know how to have perfect opsec to reasonably transact privately with bitcoin? Do we really expect them to know every intricacy like us? Why not make that as easy and foolproof as possible?

I'm sure a vast majority of bitcoiners don't even know how to do this properly. And even those of us who do have to actively maintain that privacy going into the future. One false move and it is all undone. It is a valiant first attempt but just bad design in that aspect imo.

Yea, it is funny, but many subscribe to hyperbitcoinization global adoption prophecy. Are non-techy (AKA most of the world) left out of that?

It would be more likely if the image wasn't only one of criminality. There are valid reasons to prefer privacy, and it should be opt out rather than opt in.

Why not?? Age is not a barrier, the important thing is the desire to learn, a wallet with a btc qr is the same as a wallet with a the xmr qr, the difference is that to get the same privacy in btc you have to do a mix with a special wallet, pay some fees and the scenario is complicated, in monero it is intrinsic.
