you also said that "bad businessmen and government elites have a lot of money and more money is used in illegal activities because of that." That's probably wrong. I understand that business people own money more than the rest of the ordinary people, but I don't think the majority of the business people and their transactions are involved in illegal activities. I'm strongly of the belief that majority of the Bitcoin in circulation is used in legal transactions.

What did I say wrong? Isn't more money circulating between criminals than in honest people? And what stops majority of the business people to use bitcoin for illegal activities? What stops terrorists and criminals from using Bitcoin? There are two people: one who uses bank for illegal activities and another one who is more modern and uses bitcoin. More money in this world is owned by criminals compared to average people. More USD is in criminal's hands compared to average people. Exchanges, that hold the biggest bitcoin reserves, are centralized, banks are centralized. What do they have in common? Elites launder money through centralized institutes. Elites have more money than you and me
Btw I want to mention that I don't agree with the given statistics, I don't think their number is correct, I just said that it's not astonishing if many people use Bitcoin for illegal activities because many people use USD, Ruble and Euro for illegal activities and all of their bitcoins gets converted in these currencies.

On the extreme scenario that there is zero privacy, then their software source code is neither private, so we can all see how their accuracy function works, which is the first step to devaluing it.

The fact that Chainalysis are fighting so hard in court, using every means available to them, to prevent anyone from even looking at their source code should tell you all you need to know about how accurate it is (i.e. completely made up bullshit). They know if their code is exposed and everyone sees first hand what a scam it is, then their profits tank.

Chainanalysis are fighting so hard in court because they are funded by rich elites. Rich elites want to control everything and everyone and those who are going under their radar are considered as competitors. It's not hard to guess that their code doesn't work as expected and is a bullshit.
