 I think we're talking past each other and arguing different points  
 yes that's entirely possible and would explain why we keep repeating ourselves.

The reason I brought up Monero at all in this conversation was that I was suggesting Bitcoin is feature complete, and that adding new opcodes, while they could potentially add some marginal improvement, are incredibly risky and irresponsible.  

Someone suggested that bitcoin should have privacy and I was attempting to explain why that can't really happen and some of the tradeoffs associated with it.
