I had a whole section on alternative layers but took it out since it was too long and didn't really feel like it fit for the objective of this article. Essentially how lightning will still be the thing that brings them all together unless they can stand on their own.
Regarding channel factories, I've stopped talking about them since 2020 and I don't think I'll ever bring them up again until it happens. I don't think it will be useful for end users either way.
Oh really? I thought you just gave up on soft forks deciding to focus instead on working with what you got (nothing wrong with that, its for the better actually), but I didn't know that you thought it wouldn't be useful for end users. Have you expressed those thoughts in more detail somewhere?

I think channel factories are great for routing nodes, not necessarily for end users. There's always online requirements associating with adjusting the factories iirc.

Right, which is something I remember being resolved if CTV got implemented.
They call them "non-interactive channels"

Oh, but I know, people think CTV is recursive even though it isn't because Androp speculated it might be and people took him saying "I don't know" as if it were fact of reality which is silly and its going to be a real uphill battle to get people to see that ugh.
