the less one puts in the work of studying mainchain Bitcoin and lightning (LND in particular), the further behind they shall fall;

i think that LN and BTC are actually a good model of how the collective mind behaves when grounded in reality (math and energy in this case); in other words, it is a model for studying the Self; Bruce Lee studied the self thru a physical combative artform, Pythagoras thru math and geometry, Usain Bolt thru athletic performance, mushroom scientists thru the study of the mycelial networks, etc.;

L-BTC was a fun project, and it's going obsolete;
