People should pay more attention to this matter. This is not a joke or FUD or stupid thing. I could say that is a more dangerous aspect than any "core vs knots" bullshit war.
I see that @justin_shocknet didn't want (yet) to make a full post on SN about this and post it only on nostr. So I make a reminder here:
This is serious and should be treat it as such.

sorry I didn't want to be in that hell thread. I do not like these kind of games.

Lightning wallets can very easily introduce trust and centralization with the same exact trade-offs; fake L2s are no different than zero-conf channels, but this isn't sexy and won't raise a bunch of money or generate hype. Actually enhancing UX is tedious, hard work, to which I can attest, and inherently requires scarce creativity, otherwise the challenges would be solved already.
This is a good point and i'll go with it, but I'm not willing to say that we shouldn't investigate other trade offs. Also I'm not willing to say the only possible layer 2 is lightning. It's the best one we have going, but there was a time when it was just an idea and plenty of people didn't like it.

plenty of people didn't like it.
And do you remember who are those?
  • the most important ones are the big blockers
  • moneruchos
  • those that LN fucked their "business model"
  • clueless lazy users
This meme I've made some years ago and still stands
