You‘re right. First, Revolut has been pretty „crypto friedly“ in the past. In fact, it now offers to buy bitcoin directly in the app and you can even send bitcoin to Revolut from an external wallet to then sell it for fiat (never tried this though). Second, probably Revolut doesn’t „want“ to connect the dots. It benefits from P2P in general. An indirect proof for this guess is Wise, which is very restrictive with respect to P2P fiat transactions and want to know literally everything you do.
So I guess Revolut is the lesser evil as you say.
