even though carlton banks thinks qr codes and uri's are fine to use. i find it easier to just enter an email address instead of scanning a qr code or entering a weird looking uri. and i am a technical person, i would assume emails are easier to use for "normies"

I am a little bit late on this.
I discovered this thread while updating my:
Lightning Network Observer
I would agree with ndalliard here: user experience is still difficult for most people.
Adding an option to send payments using an interface as simple as an email address (albeit the backend is quite different), would only make things easier for a lot of people.
Advanced users can still fiddle with the more privacy-oriented methods if they wish.
This is the beauty of the opt-in systems.
