However, if you're able to use the payment protocol then you probably
don't need stealth addresses to prevent reuse.

E.g. What can I put for a donation address on a totally static
webpage? or on a billboard?

At least thats what I understood these things were trying to solve—
fix privacy where realtime two way communication just isn't available.
