thanks to @nout:
"So this means that each pool will be submitting ~15k vB to mempool every 10 minutes (so there's a limit for number of pools running at the same time - if my math is correct there can be AT MOST 256 pools)"
do you really think that's "best technology" ?
I'm not sure...
256 pools? and they said long time ago: "LN will be centralized"...
256 pools and we have no space for today's transactions in the block, which is fully occupied right now...
I think 256 pools competing is plenty. Right now we have Wallet of Satoshi and Alby:-)
As long as this is open and new pools can join without any approvals (just plebs using it), I think its ok.
Also, smaller pools might find a way to join together to get in the block and compete with large pools (and increase privacy).

implying that lightning may not be the best, it doesn't follow that this new protocol ark is

I don't mean to imply anything, I don't know anything about ark. Just saying there's a possibility something better comes along and nobody uses it.

yes I agree with you
