Yeah, it's a contradiction; I didn't mean to say that all the things I listed are possible. Not wanting to download hundreds of gigabytes of blockchain is also a contradiction; the only solution I know of is to use a light wallet, and then you're suddenly relying on someone else's service instead of just relying on the decentralized network.
a contradiction right there. Security/freedom is a trade-off, and bitcoin has traded away some security for some freedom. Some people like that freedom, but some don't.
