Why?
that implies to me that we’re gonna be relying on ‘supernodes’ as liquidity providers/reliable partners, and having a single counterparty makes it so much easier for big hubs to exploit ppl with random fee changes if their only retaliation is closing the channel.
You don't need to open/close channels. You open a big channel once when you get your first paycheck. Now, the liquidity is on your side, then you start paying for rent, food, etc. aka pushing out the liquidity. Then you get your salary again and the liquidity comes back. So it just goes back and forth all the time without the need to close/open your channel for rebalancing.
