It's simple and I would like you to THINK very seriously:
- if you are using LN for daily payments, YOU DO NOT need a full public routing node! You can use private nodes, just fine and not bother the rest.
- if you use a LN public node for routing, please consider reading and pay attention to those guides and take the necessary measures. If you can be a good LSP, is perfect, but if not, then you are a burden... for all.

This is serious, is not a joke, running a shity node indeed is affecting the whole network, without even knowing.

A lot of failing nodes is the sign of low entry barrier to the market aka one does not need a banking license to route a lightning payment.

Uptime is measurable and algos can take that into account.

But I agree the operation of a node requires some work.
