Matt, the pool mint can payout a token for every share submitted to the pool. All these tokens are indistinguishable from the mints perspective. Redeeming tokens can be scripted so as to not reveal the net tokens withdrawn in one lump sum. They can be withdrawn peace meal over a given time window to an arbitrary number of destinations via lightning. Withdraw to many different mints lightning addresses ect.
Pretty clear to me these are wins.
And yea it will take time to get there but being a wet towel about it isn’t going to help

They’re really not, though. Also important to point out that you can’t “just” withdraw all your tokens piecemeal as the fee to do that (even over lightning) would dominate, and the intermediate hoops through the lightning network plus withdraw steps would almost certainly be a unique fingerprint. I’m quite confident you’d end up with zero additional privacy against a pool that really dug into it. View quoted note →
I can disprove that.
“They’re really not though”… please elaborate.
Also “fees will predominate”. Cool hypothetical, I can do that too in the opposite direction.
Also receiver privacy on lightning should increase over time
