Completely agree it should be removed, or at the very least have it's Privacy rating downgraded from "Good" to "Caution". Under the Wasabi page (https://bitcoin.org/en/wallets/desktop/linux/wasabi/?step=5&platform=linux) it currently says "Prevents spying on your payments" which is just categorically not true - they pay Coinfirm to actively spy on your payments.

If you're not using the coin joins you would never even know or care.
Maybe worth pointing out that Wasabi now apparently automatically starts coinjoining everything, charging you a fee to be spied on, whether you want it to or not: https://nitter.net/DiracDel/status/1672294717193859074
