What Hardware do you think LN hubs will be using?
Why do people want to exclude that hardware for bitcoin but include it for LN?

LN is outside the scope when we're talking about block size / time interval.

Why ,
LN will be making multiple transactions per second.
Where as Bitcoin makes a block every 10 minutes and fills it with transactions.
Buy the PC you would have purchased for LN for Bitcoin instead and let's quit the nonsense Bitcoin can't scale.
Because if LN can scale on a PC, then we know damn well Bitcoin can scale on the same PC unless it's software is being intentionally crippled.

Considering Litecoin has an equivalent blocksize 4X bitcoin size in a 10 minute period.
Moving bitcoin to an 8MB block is still less than litecoin and you don't hear litecoin node operators whining like little girls.
Sad day when bitcoin community is too scared to even come near litecoin transactions performance, let alone exceed it.

While it's true LTC have bigger block size and faster block time interval, LTC's average block size and average blockchain size growth are smaller Bitcoin, which makes poor/inaccurate comparison.

If there's research/stress test about resource usage on LTC's full node when LTC is used at 100% capacity for some time, that would be good comparison.

Let's Clarify , their current transactions are lowered , but their capacity exceeds Bitcoin.
Since LTC uses ASICS, there is no real stress on a Node, you won't strain a PC running a PoW node software, as the PC does not do all that much.
So your show me stress tests are meaningless because PoW nodes don't stress a PC at all.
Now a Proof of Stake coin with a 30 second blockspeed and staking 5000 blocks at the same time, will require a quad processor and 4 gig of ram, but PoW nodes don't do shit, the ASICS do all of the heavy lifting, and BCH ran a 32 MB test block with no issue.

BSV mined 128MB Blocks with no issues.

* Litecoin nodes will never be at 100% capacity , because their nodes will just upgrade to a larger blocksize when needed, instead of complaining it is not possible and we need more testing to the point it never gets done.*

Their is an old saying , Shit , Piss or get off the Pot.
For Bitcoin it will go, Increase blocksize , faster blockspeed , or just get left behind.
