Buraq came up with a protocol called Arc to address this issues. There isn't a working demo yet but I think there are people working on it.

I believe arc requires a soft fork. But yes buraq says lightning leads to risk of centralisation

We have to tradeoff something in layer 2, either decentralization or thrust. I'm not worried about centralization in LN it's a permissionless protocol. I think Arc might be more centralized but a much better experience.

Doesn’t seem to be the case with drivechain.

You have to put thrust in a federation of miners to hold the bitcoin that are pegged in as far as I know. In liquid it's the same but with a federation of entities like exchanges.
