Sphinx chat payments work exclusively on Lightning and so is the El Salvador Chico wallet. Why do people keep using the same uninformed arguments every time bitcoin is mentioned?

Sounds like recentralization to me.

IMHO, if we’re gonna do cryptocurrency, we should try to make as many transactions as possible on layer 1.

You can run Sphinx on your own hardware. You can pay bills on El Salvador with any LN wallet connected to any node.

I think summm's comment was mocking anti-bitcoiners, but some people probably took it seriously.
