yeah but that comes with it's own problems. There's a line between privacy and public and that line is functionality.

This level of privacy is for nefarious actors, not ordinary people. Ordinary people want some semblance of privacy, but go tell at 40 something to do all these steps just to transact and they will fall off pretty quickly.

Monero GUI and Tari GUI are so user centric and easy to use (somewhat) that anyone at any age can transact, save, run a node and even mine all in one GUI wallet with a few button presses. Now compare this to the hardcore privacy methods?
