My biggest hurdle when running my own lightning node was always that, if the device itself failed, restoring the node to a new device required closing all of the channels
Is this still the case? Is there any solution to this, where a new device could be hotswapped without closing channels?
This is an absolutely critical feature if we intend to win the game of whackamole with the State
In order to avoid this backup your channels. This can be automated as well.

If you restore your backed up channels to a new device it still closes them all, in my understanding/experience
I think the situation matters. I have moved my node to new hardware without closes and minimal downtime.
