Well yeah I think it should just be that way since we do have choices with Altcoins like Monero if we wanted a full privacy when it comes to our assets. Maybe devs just live it what it is before or maybe they are cooking something to enhance the privacy of Bitcoin who knows right? Is it because of emerging supercomputers with incredible computing power that might be threat to it, or just the privacy alone? I  just don't understand why he is concerned about Bitcoins privacy wherein privacy coins are available around for many years now.
