Privacy is not a "feature" it's a core component of cash in p2p digital "cash"
Because Bitcoin lacks privacy it's fungibility is weak and it is open to targeted censorship resistance
An encrypted base + L2 will always be better for privacy than one built on a transparent base
You're right Monero wont replace Bitcoin because it isn't trying to ossify or be transparent at it's base layer. They're two different projects.
