Sounds like SPV clients are on the way out anyway in favor of other lite methods, might as well show them the door.
if that's true then SPV clients are on a dark path. using methods such as what Electrum protocol provides is cool and convenient but it has a very big flaw: it lacks privacy. and that's something bloom filters could improve.
i feel like this is another feature that was (partially) removed from core just because it has flaws, instead of being improved.
Are there any SPV wallet which still use bloom filter nowadays?
i believe Breadwallet, mSIGNA and BISQ and a couple of others are relying on bloom filters.
