This question is pretty complex, but it is very important to the longevity of Monero both as a project and as a concept. The way that I see Monero is as a currency, full stop. Any feature that it has should first and foremost make it a better currency. Using it solely as a "privacy tool" fails at a micro and macro level of scrutiny for the same reasons that ZCash's shielded transactions do.The more people use Monero, the stronger the currency becomes. As such, Monero needs to be capable of scaling that exceeds the theoretical scaling of network demand. A failure to do so doesn't merely limit the number of users to the literal bounds of the network's capability-it will turn potential users away from the network far before it reaches that point, as they wouldn't be able to trust the network to work for them.I'd be curious to hear the thoughts of others
