I'd personally rather nostr adoption be bootstrapped quickly on white belt custodial lightning than slowly on black belt non-custodial lightning. It's not like the custodial option was randomly chosen as the advocated experience. When the risk is a couple dollars of zaps, you look like a hairshirt demanding everyone be as intractible as you.
Discussion
Very strongly disagree. This same approach is often the reason for things failing to be done properly at all or making it far more difficult down the line because shortcuts are taken up front for "mass adoption" sake.
It's not even that hard to do it right today, let's just do it right from the start and all throw our weight behind proper, self-sovereign, self-custodial solutions.
"Nothing is so permanent as a temporary government program"
And so it will be with Nostr Zaps. "Eh, it works so I'm not going to bother changing it ever."
Unfortunately I'm very confident years from now that the reliance on custodial zapping will look much the same as it does today.
