But be aware that you're going to destroy Bitcoin in the process, especially if you normalize it and set a precedent that other wallets might follow.
Pretty sure entities like centralized exchanges and Wasabi do not care in the slightest if they are attacking bitcoin, as long as they make their profits.

I do think that technical solutions are a more sure-fire way method to make sure fungibility and privacy is maintained in the future
I don't disagree, and I've said as much in the past:

It is unrealistic to say "Well, privacy will be better once we convince everyone to stop using centralized exchanges". As much as I wish everyone would stop using centralized exchanges, the only way for that to happen is if centralized exchanges cease to exist. If we want better privacy, and if we want bitcoin to remain fungible, then we need to implement change at a protocol level.
I would absolutely support more privacy at a protocol level, I would absolutely support a technical solution with guarantees bitcoin fungibility, and indeed such protocol changes are the only way we will ever guarantee fungibility. Education of the community will never get us there, but that doesn't mean I'm going to stop talking about this and trying to get as many people as possible to stop tacitly supporting taint by using services and business which enforce such nonsense.

It would certainly be fun, but don't use the word taint. The real question is how you could put it to any sort of good use?
