well, if lightning is actually a network of peers moving htlcs (simplifying a lot, I know), whomever wants to use NFT could connect in a network of peers in a LN fashion but apart from it, so the trades and stuff don't eat the LN liquidity? I know they still have the commitment txs, but once they mint their things it's done, they get the bitcoin hashrate security in a way that impacts a little less the mempools, right? If the nfts/ordinals/etc are really demanded, I think the minting will eventually slow down and the trades will be the primary use, otherwise it wouldn't make a difference. Am I in the right direction?
