I would guess it’s more common for application developers to reach for a tool more specific to the use case, like etcd, zookeeper, or consul.
You’re right that LND could potentially use advisory locks, which might make sense to eliminate an entire dependency when postgres is used as the backend.

Nice find.
If Postgres is already a single point of failure in the cluster, there’s not much sense in alsp having etcd as a dependency.
