It very much is opposed and is very unlikely to happen.

Re:How the original Coinbase founders clashed: Bitcoin purity versus m... on Wednesday April 14, 2021 @08:13AM (#26806009)
The custodial vs non-custodial wallet debate personified by a tale of two founders. As someone who worked in the Ethereum space for ages it's interesting to see that this dichotomy ripped apart these two in the same way that it seems to create two camps in crypto: easy adoption vs purism. I can only imagine the quantity of customer service emails that would've been sat in a Reeves-headed Coinbase inbox with the subject line "HELP: FORGOT MY PASSWORD;" all short stories of orphaned assets forever sat on the blockchain, linked to an address that will never be picked back up again.
