Q: Does BIP-47 (reusable payment codes, the successor to silent paments) make privacy worse for the sender?
A: Yes
https://silentpayments.xyz/docs/comparing-proposals/bip47/There are also advantages to BIP-47.
Know the trade offs that you are making when you choose which technology to use.
Side note: if someone wants to make a diagram of how this works, I think it would really help with educating people on BIP-47 and likely increase its adoption.
