Why isn't taproot getting more buzz??

Are people sleeping on how important Taproot will be for BTC ??? It seems it has gotten very little coverage compared to (at least if you go outside BTC forums) EIP1559 or Alonzo (ADA). My basic understanding is it will improve BTCs scalability (will reduce time/fees....by 20% is a number I heard some vid say) and will make it pretty private. Sounds awesome to me but I know some get scared when they hear privacy. Is there some cons that should be addressed??
