Why do people think of it as an attack?
If you think nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 is an attack on Lightning then you can kindly take my 🫂 and 🤙🏻 and ponder this for a moment. The vast majority of people on our planet will NEVER run a full Lightning node on a computer in their home.
However, they will absolutely unknowingly run a embedded Lightning node on their phone (or in other device). Most people do not give a shit about how the technology works. They just want it to work and work without issue. For technology to be the most successful, it should fade into the background.
End rant.

I believe that's because Zeus mobile node is a pruned node which doesn't store the full history of the time chain.
Some people might think that if less people are running nodes with full history and more runs just pruned nodes, it might weaken the network 🤔
some people in this space dish out the word 'attack' so much it loses its meaning
Not attacking bitcoin is an attack on bitcoin
If it's going to be the world's reserve currently and the future of payments and invoicing then we better stress test the shit out of it. Break all the things! Make it better! This is the way!
