Call me brainwashed, yet I don't consider anything consistently below 20 to 30 sats per vbyte to be particularly expensive for onchain transactions.

You're not brainwashed. Transaction fees will inevitably become the main compensation for miners. This can be delayed to the next decade, but it's just a matter of time.

It is frustrating that some people have not yet realized that having a permanent hard cap of 21 million comes with tradeoffs. There is no free lunch; everything comes at a price. What's important is who pays the price.

Don't get me wrong.
I know the free market regulates the block space, and fees are surely going north, so we need to take action to avoid unwanted consequences (consolidation to 500K! Opening channels).
I don't see the situation that is meant to happen in 10 years because of hyperbitcoinisation, has to be dealt today because of... monkey jpgs.
