good effing advice.

Now factor in the managing/open-close channels + extra electricity cost of running it. Same result?

I don't run a routing node. Just a few channels for spending money. So yes, it doesn't cost almost anything. That 1k sat saved in this transaction alone, is enough to open a channel if I needed to.
