It's true. Lightning really helps the idea that bitcoin is a rock you engrave into steel, bury in your backyard and never touch again. At the moment, it is still seen largely as an investment. Not everyone invests. But everyone buys and sells stuff. As bitcoinization increases, more circular economies will grow, especially in developing nations. This will get more sats more evenly distributed. Many people who have HODL in their twitter handles are super-pumped to buy a hat or a t-shirt with Lightning. Bitcoin evangelism is definitley alive and well, i've seen many tweets about people orangepilling their uber driver or waiter and tipping them in sats on a newly downloaded Blue or Muun Wallet
