I think it's very important to make sure the node runner is in charge of the code they're running. No point in running a node if it's whatever version of Bitcoin the devs like the most. They already run their own node.

Has to be flexible throughout it's lifespan.

Something to keep in mind.

I agree 100%. I like being able to run whichever version / flavor I want when I want to. Unfortunately I see big names in the Bitcoin space pushing people towards the all-in-one solutions, and in some cases actively discouraging the do-it-yourself approach..

Do it yourself can be hard, so if you only care about privacy and non custodial lightning that could be fine I guess. But it doesn't decentralize the network or increase your sovereignty imo.
