"Don't go around talking about bitcoin in public" is fine now, but in a future when bitcoin is globally used won't be so protective.
Anyway, probably I'm too pessimistic and I search for semplicity where it cannot exist.
I mean ... I don't walk around talking about how much money I have in my bank account, why would this change with bitcoin? Maybe because obvious that you have "some" bitcoin, but nobody needs to know how much.

It's actually amazing to me - quite a few normal people - who would NEVER dream of asking me how much I have in my investment accounts - have asked me (when it came up that I was interested in bitcoin) "How much bitcoin do you own?"

If you have some bitcoin now, you'll have a lot of bitcoin in the future. Nominally the same, but much more in real terms.

Not necessarily. You might want to entrust it to a third party (uncle Jim who has lots of guns and a posse) or you might want to enjoy life or donate it to worthy causes. Or the classic: you lost it in a boating accident.
