 I get it, but for a spending situation and an amount like 20k sats it is okay to not pay Alby and host your own node for 30k a month - don't you think?  
 Using a custodial solution for absolutely anything is absolutely 100% never ever ever okay. Promoting custodial solutions is about the same amount of dangerous as promoting Philip Morris cigarettes to children. Why do you want to kill children?
