As a few examples
Removing mordinals was a maximally private idea. Adding templating to Tari was done as the flip side of this, to maximize how many people can express themselves on chain.
In monero vanity addresses are not possible on chain to maximize privacy. In Tari every address is made of emojis that are encouraged to be shortened with yats.
Smart contracting is huge, it gets people excited. Tari can be like the smart contracting platform monero needs to get people using privacy preserving technology.
To be fair I don’t think anyone here is the target audience. The target is the 99% of the world who aren’t onboarded to crypto. Fluffy said it best when he described Tari as a “Trojan Horse”. https://youtu.be/FSe8IXJO6nI https://youtu.be/zmeSSnppixY
We need something to get people into the space and we need it to be private by default.
It’s absolutely a sales pitch but I’m sorry to hear I’m doing it badly.
I don’t think I need to convince anyone here to accept it since the work that the architects put into Tari will speak for itself.
I love the idea of distributed computing and the way I see it, Monero has always had the most potential to grow and be adopted because of it’s privacy features. But we haven’t seen that in what people are building. ETH and SOL are blowing XMR out of the water when it comes to available dapps. I think Tari could be like the ETH arm of the Monero distributed computer.
I think there will be a lot of push back from hardcore Monero users who want absolute privacy and offering anything else is unacceptable.
I’d counter to say that maybe that works for you but it clearly doesn’t work for everyone. We’re getting maximum privacy at the cost of user experience and it’s causing adoption to faulter.
We all agree that we’re not seeing the wave of adoption we’d expect with such an important project. One reason for that may be the sacrifices we’ve made in the name of maximizing privacy.
Tari is a way to have both, maximum privacy and some compromises that will increase onboarding. All while increasing the XMR hash rate through merge-mining.

He did a great job summarizing the ideas and reasoning behind FCMPs. The Monero community is really lucky to have someone with his talent contributing.
