>What scenario are you describing exactly?

The scenario where an exchange gets shut down by LE, like BTC-e here.

>What exact problem are you trying to thwart?

The problem of exchanges getting shut down by LE, like BTC-e here.

Monero is great, I'm buying more every day, but it doesn't solve the issues exchanges may face.

The crux of the BTC-E event seems to be from blockchain analysis, given the information we have. In which case Monero would have stopped this investigation.

In general though, the currency has nothing to do with the exchange's problems? I'm not really sure what you are imagining. Decentralized solutions like EtherDelta and upcoming cross chain solutions are going to be accelerated by this culling.
