Towards the end of my node experience, I was having a huge imbalance. People would keep opening channels to them and I did not want/have the means to increase my outgoing balance. However, it was hugely profitable, for me and for those peers, due to my specific situation at the time. I was playing the LOOP liquidity game, bigly (rotating at least 1 BTC per day). So, because they were opening channels to me, I was basically putting the burden of the game at N-2 instead of N-1 as is visual when LOOP is at N. The only thing I had to do was to continuously close and reopen channels to free up liquidity towards LOOP.
So, in brief, it's not a problem. You decide if/when to close such channels and if the same people keep opening to you, that's probably a good sign ;)
