You know better what and how to use there. I am just presenting you the details so you can take the right decision before getting stuck in a bad situation.
Brother, I am grateful for the advice and suggestions you always have to help me. It is a real shame to live here in this place where everything is a complication. But well, I did tests with the Green and even in one aspect it seemed more interesting to me than Phoenix, it is that when opening the channel with direct deposit through the Lightning Network, the cost is fixed at 2500 SAT, in Phoenix the cost is 1% of the deposit + mining fee. When I opened the channel in my Phoenix I took advantage of a quiet moment with a fee of 2 SAT/vB and it was not so expensive, but in these times of so much movement I have seen openings of more than 3000 SAT. Right now to open in Phoenix with 100,000 SAT, to compare, it would charge me 3284 SAT, in Green 2500, but if I open in Phoenix with 250,000 it would be 4784 SAT in Green it is still 2500 SAT, that is great. In my tests, I'm using Green with a simple VPN, low mobile data usage, and it opens quickly. So it's not that bad. Thanks again, buddy.

Please be aware of what I was saying. Is not about the cost of first deposit (aka opening a new channel), but about the next deposits, when your inbound liquidity is low.
Phoenix and Green are using the "splicing" method to expand the channel with the next deposits. That means EACH time you pay the fees as it would a new channel opening.
So to avoid that, the first deposit must be bigger so you create from the start a bigger channel with just one time fee.
