But nobody would. Nobody is going to zap $5 plus on chain fees for a social media post. or I should say very few would.

Maybe all 3 is the way. on chain zap, ln zap, and cashu.

Depending on if you are zapping, buying, sending, using robosata, etc... you could choose which method you want to use.

Almost nobody is using Nostr, and even among the people using Nostr a very small percentage actually send zaps. The reason is because it's too hard. So if you're argument is that nobody will do it, that's already the current situation.

Well, let's look at it a different way.

Zero people zap on xitter, Instagram, threads, reddit, or others. And by zap, I mean send monetary value of any kind besides a like, share, etc... not just Bitcoin.

There were 45k active users yesterday on NOSTR, 11k zaps were sent. many by the same people, but let's say 25% of the actives zapped.

That 2500 more people that sent money for reactions to posts than was sent on all the other platforms combined.

Seems worthwhile to build on to me.
