the Bitcoin whitepaper proposes a specific economicmic model that does not parallel with the lightning network as you can see if you read the first page of the whitepaper. The lightning network is literally, an off chain solution that has nothing to do with hash power. Hash power is what backs the bitcoin economy, lightning network takes that away by proposing 2nd layer (a dummy name for third party) solutions.
We are talking about two completely different experiments here.
Lightning Network isn't a "3rd party"; its an independent network of people who voluntarily agree to participate in it, for very little (if any) compensation. Yes, its an off-chain solution, and if it helps make bitcoin more usable then so be it. Nobody cares about rules you are arbitrarily imposing on the Bitcoin Network.
So for some, what constitutes bitcoin is a document, not a ticker symbol ruled by the likes of a third party exchange.
Yes, and they are all already invested in BCH and SV.
