I see a similarity between the way zaps are pooled on SN and lightning txs are pooled off-chain. I am not saying that SN has nearly the same protection that LN does. And LN does not share nearly the same security model that Bitcoin on-chain does, but I do see zaps as bona-fide trusted centralized off-chain transactions.
