On 3, something you've set as "private" being brought up in a public setting is surprising. You made it someway so that others couldn't see it, so it seems rational to assume it would be considered sensitive information.

If nothing else, giving the option to disable this on private lists would be nice.

The entire account is ‘private’ in this context.

Unless you explicitly share something, all of the information is protected equally except for credit card numbers and your password.

Like I mentioned above, if the author had a gift in their shopping cart or ‘save for later’ and Alexa notified on a price change, would they have a similar reaction?

It’s not a moot point now but either this is just a serendipitous occasion or somebody Amazon really listens, but I just opened up the app, went to manage lists, and there’s literally an option now to manage the list through Alexa or not.

These are different in that the person involved did not explicitly set them as private. They might feel annoyed, but would realize they made the mistake.
