I think as long as the game theory holds and Bitcoin replaces fiat as the global reserve currency, then humanity wins.
It may turn out that we need ecash for the last mile of money transmission, but I'm not ready to abandon lightning for fiat mints

Anyway, thanks for asking the OP question and starting this whole discussion. Always come away from these with new understandings.
