yeah, i wouldn't even consider putting swap on that garbage... if i was ever to use that hardware i'd plug a USB-3 NVMe external drive into it for the boot device, assuming there is a model that has at least a 5gbit USB interface, otherwise that just rules the entire thing out

there is plenty of other SoCs out there that you can use that do have both 10Gbit+ USB and NVMe interfaces, i wouldn't even consider the standard rPi for anything to be honest... i have a HP G3 mini and it's pretty great, has both sata 6gbit and a ~4gb/s SATA interface AND two DP outputs AND a usb-c with DP capability... cost me 140 euros, there is just no sane reason to spend any less on such a device, throw another 150 euros for a 2Tb nvme device and a 70 euro UPS and you have everything you need for a competent lightning node except maybe a reliable backup network connection

There is a sane reason to... If you're a computer nincompoot like me and there's a guide for doing it that way
