They don't "integrate", stop using words you don't know the meaning of
There is inherently more latency and failure probability as a result of the additional mint settlement overhead, this is engineering 101 and unavoidable when complexity is added.
Again, have you ever even used an ecash wallet? It's not practically slower than normal lightning. And by "integrate" I mean integrate in a UX sense. Please don't assume I don't know what I'm saying. I do use precise language.

Yes, had a good chuckle with some other Lightning wallet devs when we got rugged right away
I've also helped users of them decipher their bad error handling
I don't criticize the implementations directly because building shit is hard, its more fair just to say their ideas are stupid

How'd you get rugged? What ecash protocol did you use? What mint?
I used an ecash wallet as a primary wallet and had no problem.

We put sats in and couldn't get them out due to an error that made no sense
We reported it

Cool story, maybe our bug report helped... but it means nothing at scale
