Also , when you receive a payment bigger than the inbound capacity you have you will be paying the onchain fee too.

Yeah, with 1-2 sat/vB onchain LN is only useful for micropayments.

I have plenty of channels open with outbound liquidity higher than $100 and pay much less than what on-chain fees would cost. If I was doing thousands of dollars, then it would be different

sending "big" amounts like >50$ will cost you more on phoenix than on-chain (with the current on-chain fees).

But if you are sending 100$ or more constantly, onchain is cheaper even with high fees.

Phoenix 0.5% fee on every transaction is just killing the purpose of using LN.
