Are you going to put nothing in your article about the flaws and vulnerabilities of LN? I thought your article was going to be unbiased technological explanation but the introduction makes some biased, subjective claims about scaling and increased decentralization compared to traditional payment services. Thus I think you should balance that with a list of counter-claims against LN.

See the LN section:

Peer review is requested on that linked blog as well.

Thanks for the feedback! My goal in writing this piece was to explain how channels are constructed at the protocol layer, not to provide insight on cost/benefits of the LN itself. After hearing your comments and re-reading, I definitely agree that some of my language is (unintentionally) biased. I'm going to clean up the piece and create a more hard-lined distinction between what is inherent fact vs. claims made by LN.

I'll take a look at your post and provide insight as well!
