Agreed, I'm surprised by the push for cashu. Cashu may add nicer onboarding into lightning, but we need better self custody experiences.

Imo we are one leap away from having it. Phoenix connects to a single LSP and is locked to the LSP. If there would be an intuitive way to migrate the channel to another LSP in the case Acinq goes down, then we have a fully self custodial lightning with great experience.
