I am not deeply enough educated to challenge anything that you are saying... except to witness that you are saying that you love that other girl more than this girl. You did not tell me whether you listened to the Super Testnet interview that I had provided or to criticize any of his claims.
So that is an overly simplistic representation of my position.
I do not really pit one girl against the other. Too black and white. And instead of two girls what I see is two tools, that though they work very similarly have a divergence at such a fundamental level that they are not the same at all.
Monero is arguably NOT a good store of value because of the issue of auditability. You will hear proponents argue convoluted pretzel logic about how it IS auditable, but the reality is if there WERE an inflation exploit it would be VERY hard to know this.
I am struggling to think of a better analogy than two girls. It would be better to think of Bitcoin as a tank, and Monero as a 150cc scooter. Both means of transportation but built for very different purposes. I would not go to war on my scooter, nor would I drive my tank to the grocery store. But this analogy is quite flawed as well.
AND in the end I believe Bitcoin will (actually MUST) be traded on layers above the base chain, and eventually a layer will be created that inherits ALL of Monero's privacy advantages at least, and retains enough sovereignty to be safe to store a little value on that layer. Liquid and Fedimints are inching in the right direction.
Until then though... if you really want the best privacy guarantees... well you know the rest... poor dead horse.
