Please use the example of me spending $1 of cash to buy a bottle of water off of a street vendor. Can the government or regulatory body trace this transaction or block it? They can't? Then the premise is invalid.

They're trying to apply the same false premise to crypto.

That doesn’t make any sense – 1€ transactions aren’t blocked because they’re small, just like the text of this rule excludes. If you try to bring 10,000€ in a suitcase to a bank, I’m sure that’d attract just as much attention as your bitcoin would.
