Yes because Monero is private by default it does require more complex ways to verify supply but it can be done by verifying block subsidy and emission schedule. Not sure how this creates a bigger attack surface?
Bitcoins transparency also creates risks— financial surveillance not possible in tradfi, wrench attacks, black listed addresses, etc. This is where Monero shines and why I stated they make a good pair. Yes you can get some good privacy on layer 2s but none match Monero and it has been battled tested on DNM to a much greater level than any layer 2.
Not sure how exchange delisting affects decentralization of nodes and miners? Interesting how Monero has shown strength since all the delistings by almost any metric?
Overall I use and like Lightning but it does not match Monero for privacy. And you can easily screw yourselves on Lightning privacy if you don’t know what you’re doing.
If you can get over all the confirmation bias caused by believing “everything that isn’t bitcoin is a shitcoin” you might start to see the benefit of Monero.
