Good response, thanks.

I've been running my node and managing my own channels for a few years and have never experienced any of these cases. But you helped me understand better what the potential threats could be.

I wonder if the benefits of using Lightning make up for these rare events that can be more costly than we wanted? Maybe we're focusing so much on these potential negatives and not enough on the positives, and it's stinting the growth of the network and scaring people away?

Just pondering here.
