No, it just worried me for a while because of channel opening delays from chain congestion. Then I learned about zero conf channels.
It was a possible onboarding issue for Indranet with clients setting up for the first time. Relays must open them but waiting a day for a lower fee channel open TX isn't a big deal. Setting up DNS for a website also often takes a day, it's just users who need instant access.
As such it's not really a problem for businesses based on LN they don't intend to close channels frequently, and open fairly large, long lived channels to reliable peers.
It's obvious that at least part of the support for Ordinals is coming from enemies of Bitcoin but they are just shooting themselves in the foot. Migrating ecommerce systems to LN will just accelerate hyperbitcoinisation and further increase its already dominant network effect in the p2p payments space.
