Comment:

 After 15 years, private posts are still here and, as @Amieiro commented,
 they have a niche. This will destroy many sites from a backwards
 compatibility standpoint.

 So I would also consider this a `wontfix` candidate. Adding `close` tag in
 this regard, more insight required, though.

 Although given, there is a potential performance concern here, and now we
 have a "Performance" team to comment on these topics, before fully closing
 this, I'm going to add the `Performance` focus, and let's see what others
 think about moving Private to only the dashboard due to performance
 concerns.
