I can't disagree with any of this. Good advice. 

When one crosses the street without looking, they should expect to be hit by a car

That statement isn't morally supportive of hitting people with cars

Perpetuating the misconception that routing is a profitable activity is only going to cost noobs who attempt it their sats, leading more angry Lightning FUD posts by the blind who followed the blind

For the noobs: Unless you are running a service that attracts its own flows and routes as a side-effect, you will lose money trying to be a router. As an edge node, you should have only a couple-few, ideally private, channels.

When you question why someone is entitled to a profit when there is no moat, it sounds like an ethical judgment to me. You're right that there's no moat to set up a node, but I suspect running a profitable one requires a good deal of capital and commitment.
