Look, you've made a lot of posts about this and I see what you're saying and I even empathize with your position and agree with some of your analysis, but if you truly believe that there is some kind of conspiracy to trick innocent users into adding their clean UTXO's to the "swamp" then I don't think there is any profit in discussing this with you.

In your mind, how is it that I agree so strongly with your opposition? Am I part of the conspiracy, too? Do you think that I'm just parroting other users and not applying my own mind to the problem?

My position is very simple and can be stated from two points of view:

The user point of view: It may be better for individual users to steer clear of anything that obfuscates their transaction history because that (and a million other things) will probably add them to some bullshit "list" and may affect their future dealings.

The system point of view: We all have a responsibility to recognize where this "taint" fearmongering will eventually lead us and to fight back against it while we still can. That means flipping the bird at anything that undermines fungibility.
