Privacy and native AA: the three gates for frame transactions

ethresear.ch: Frame Transactions and the Three Gates to Privacy

20:06 (Nero_eth): taking EIP-8141 as given, it shows frame transactions could eliminate relayers from privacy protocols, since withdrawers from protocols like Tornado Cash and Railgun use fresh addresses with no ETH for gas and today rely on centralized, censorable relayers; but public mempool admission rules, FOCIL enforcement and the statelessness roadmap each draw different boundaries around supported transactions, and the post maps where they intersect and conflict for privacy transactions.
