Both would be nice.
Bukele has established schools and classes to teach Bitcoin to the next generation. I think this will lead to a generational shift to open source wallets and away from Chivo in El Salvador. But it will take time. In the meantime, Chivo is great for onboarding the boomers and less educated crowds in that country and/or any country in the future that adopts a Bitcoin Standard.

Ok, yea. I concede. I'm not an expert on the inner workings of Chivo wallet. I just know the majority of the world needs a little help with onboarding. These are people who don't even use banking apps because they don't use banks! They need a lot of support, and maybe Chivo is a good middle-ground way of providing some support in these early adoption days? But I dunno.... I'll read up on Chivo more.
