I think people pull their coins off exchanges to cold self custody. Lightning coins are always hot storage. I haven't checked out what their withdrawl fees are, but its possible it's a cost effective way for someone to move coins back on chain, albeit a very KYC way.
Yeah, their on-chain fees hace been lowered a lot lately. Might be a "good" (at least, cost effective if the counterparty risk and privacy aspect don't bother you too much) way to bring your Lightning coins on chain indeed.
