Don't you feel like it's very expensive to run a lightning node with channels? or am I missing something?

Please say more. What equipment and software are you running?
LND, Core Lightning, Bitcoin Core and many others on START9 OS and others.
Issue is to open a channel you need to use atleast 1,000,000 SATS for it to be useable. That’s only around £500 right now. Many items cost more than £500. Ideally you want a channel of atleast £2,000.
Then there’s the risk of losing your SATS because it’s on a “soft wallet” of your lightning node. :(
