You still do not understand the difference between public routing nodes and private node.
In order to make routing you need large amount of liquidity, otherwise is useless.
In order to make your regular LN payments, for coffees, you do not need to run a public routing node.
I was repeating this for years here.
If you werea reading in details that post, he said clearly: wanted to start a bitcoin circular economy for merchants. For that you need large amounts of liquidity.
I know Hugo for some years and I know his good skills in computers and security.
In this case wasn't his fault, was a damn bug. That's it.
But generalizing the whole spectrum of LN just because one guy was hit by a bug, it doesn't make sense.
Are you staying closed into your house because some day a big rock could fall onto your head? No. You take risks every fucking day going out.

Yes, I took the risk to TEST that app. And warn others of those risks.
But that doesn't stop me using LN or not testing more.
Because I have balls to do that. Others don't.

Some people have balls, some don't.
And is just fine.
