One of the big problems of Bitcoin, especially with regard to privacy, is that if the problem is not acknowledged and addressed honestly, all that remains are half-truths and snake oil salesmen.

For example, this statement by Kruw is completely false; it should be reformulated like this:

"Some Wasabi CoinJoins can produce estimated anonymity sets larger than Monero’s current ring size, but those metrics are not directly comparable; Monero offers protocol-level privacy by default for sender, receiver, and amount, while Wasabi depends on correct usage, liquidity, subsequent user behavior, and trust in the coordinator.”
