Well before the bank would only see your transfers to PayPal, rather than where you're actually spending your money. You're shifting trust in the sense that it used to be PayPal seeing where you're spending your money to your bank seeing where you're spending your money.

And that's not even taking into account that I trust my bank more than I trust PayPal.
