The user doesn't need LN.

I think we can agree to disagree here. I like to be able to buy a coffee with Bitcoin, and it's possible here. Also with LN for much less fees on said coffee.

You've just reminded me there is/was a small group of takeaway cafes in Fortitude Valley that were trading in Crypto, I went down the Valley a while back (prob two years ago now) and they bamboozled me with wanting me to connect to them *and then* make a purchase with crypto. I'm wondering now if they were early LN adopters (and I'm also wondering why I haven't been back in all that time??)

Things are almost back to normal with just one or two active cases, so if those shops survived our mini lock-down (some didn't) then I should go check them out and report back.

Also LN related to above I can't envisage rocking up to a coffee shop and creating a channel to said shop to then buy a cup of Joe (giving the shop a small amount of inbound and outbound capacity) - unless of course you were planing on being a regular customer as confirmation time to open a channel will be an initial issue.
