Shit cAPS I was going to give a nice long reply (I don't put the effort in much anymore) and then the oven went off and the washing machine popped and I have to get stuff done in the yard before dark)!
Lol timing!
I'll get back to this later.

Bisq going to liquid and any liquid involvement in AS is a bad thing.
Also when AS goes live we can bet all those blackilisted coins are going to get dumped on Monero holders.
Some thoughts here...
Personally I do not see Liquid as the terrible monster that some others do. I have been almost rebooted because of the Samourai developer going off on that issue and supporting Haveno etc. The whole thing is like a divide by zero error in my brain. And to be honest, I do not understand why the privacy purists don't just finally come over to the dark side of Monero.
As to blacklisted coins being dumped on Monero holders? Only the holder who decide not to hold anymore... Chances are decent they will not be dumping on me. But also I have thought about playing with the functionality and I realized any BTC I bought that way would need to live in some sequestered wallet somewhere, and most likely be used to go back to Monero. Because like you I believe we will see "tainted" bitcoin quite a bit.
In some ways Liquid being involved would be interesting as well since that puts the tainted BTC into another layer... quite interesting really... I need to work through how liquid smart contracts for peg ins work. Because that could determine where the original BTC ends up going.
This is VERY interesting stuff IMHO.
