I mean I like Justin, he’s always been a good guy, but I don’t see the same on this issue for sure.

I also can’t see how Ark does anything other than provide a net benefit to the entire Lightning ecosystem either. It seems like it really serves the role of “channel factories” that we never got due to the sheer difficulty of coordination involved. Excited to see this in action on mainnet after years of quiet building.

It’s also not as if Lightning or Ark are perfect, but they seem to me to be very similar and very prudent trade offs to get different benefits that work fantastic when used together.
