I totally agree. But Monero is still facing issues with scalability-decentralization and adoption, so people just say well forget it, let's focus on what works great as an all-arounder and is definitely going to last. It's a case of the right tool for the job, and Bitcoin is a tool that can do all jobs, but Monero is also useful for certain jobs, arguably moreso than Bitcoin at this stage in the game, for those specific jobs. I would prefer to just say Monero is good, Bitcoin is better, and there are some additional tradeoffs that are seriously worth looking at and that both projects could use tweaking on.
