Great! Just make PIX an alternative to the market, not something mandatory.

That's not possible for products that rely on social networks. Facebook has a monopoly in communication in Brazil, and if they had to compete with Pix they'd win regardless of the product. Pix, however, means anyone can integrate the functionality in their application, making every service compatible with each other and increasing competitiviness.
