Privacy and Shielded Addresses is a burden

1. many regulatory problems
2. many human hours to develop/maintain
3. difficult to support / integrate to other chains / wallets / DEX / APPs
4. its not supported by almost any exchange
5. only 1% of the network is using Shielded addresses
6. risk of inflation bug
7. not supported by hardware wallets
8. Privacy is bad for US national security
9. i have nothing to hide
