He was talking about the possibility of, eg, blue checks being purchasable via non-AML/KYC methods. In that context failing to provide options for an important minority is stupid.
It's as stupid as saying "Only a small minority of Twitter users have a lot of followers; there's no reason to make their experience good."
Obviously, the small minority who really need this stuff are often your most interesting users, who drive user interactions from the majority.
Snowden being a great example! Who Jack went on to point out had left Nostr due to bad privacy!
