The problem is that you can't load $50 onto the device, the fiat value will be volatile. Once we have hyperbitcoinization and denominate value in bitcoin, something like the opendime might be more useful.
Yeah, but they could also install a lightning wallet and receive coins in a few seconds. Granted, it would be custodial, but for a first time bitcoin user they probably wouldn't know the difference anyway.
You can load more than $5K worth of bitcoin on them(not recommended) but still, if you care about holding your own utxo.
But you're right though, lightning is definately a better option for newbies and ease of use experience, we can use things like bolt card, Sats card
