I think you misunderstand the Whirlpool model. Only new entrants pay mining fees. Remixers ride free forever both in terms of coordinator fees and mining fees. It doesn't matter if it's your first remix or your 1000th. It's virtually free *in the long run*, not on a one off basis obviously. That's just math.
If I have a UTXO and I want to raise its anonset to 1000, which is cheaper: Wasabi which will probably require me to do 20 rounds and charge me for each, or Whirlpool which will require 200 rounds but charge only for the first one?
