Okay let me put it this way. You are a very smart guy, very familiar with Bitcoin, more equipped than 99% of the world’s population to deal with any issues that Bitcoin might introduce you to. But you are furious that someone has sent you Bitcoin the wrong way.
Now, for Bitcoin to become money, think of every illegal that might be working under the table of his bodega counter. Think of a guy named Vinnie who is a chronic alcoholic and bartender. Think of a single mother who is living in a shelter. They all need money that will *just work* for their daily lives. You say there is a solution in Silent Payments, but it isn’t finished yet. Others say there is BOLT12, which has no support. I can’t get any of these things working.
The correct place to make sure the largest number of people possible can have a good experience with Bitcoin is not in yet another wallet that nobody uses, or another script covenant for a startup that is long on dreams and claims but short on implementations. It is in Bitcoin Core. If Core implements the feature, it becomes assured for everyone. Not in some wallet I literally cannot even use on a current day MacBook or an iPhone because I don’t have or want a fucking Android phone.
