The Monero Devs are developing the tech first, market second and are using the motto of "under promise and over deliver," whereas it seems you are working under the motto of "Over promise, say it's impossible and then move onto the next idea," which is still better than the dash motto, "Over promise and say you've got a better idea when most people figure out that you lied or can't deliver."
My point is if they have no clue where they are headed marketing wise, then the tech is likely to be wrong. And I think that has become the case. I see a complete rewrite will be
necessary to adopt Zerocash technology and to
fix the block scaling, mining Tragedy of the Commons.
