 I don't get what NWC brings to cashu? You have cashu.me connected to a mint. A mint backed by a lightning node. So what do you need nwc for? Seems like a solution looking for a problem.  
 NWC lets your social media apps remote control your cashu.me wallet

So if you want to zap someone's post on nostr, instead of clicking the zap button and then scanning a qr code with cashu.me, NWC can reach out to your cashu.me wallet and click the "send" button *for* you *and* enter the zap invoice *and* hit confirm, all without you needing to do anything

Same goes for receiving payments: if someone wants to zap *you,* NWC can let their wallet reach out to yours, get an invoice from it, and show it to them to pay it -- all without you needing to do anything

NWC streamlines the use of a lightning wallet without needing to open it up every time you want to do something with it 
 Got it, it let's you use a cashu wallet as the fund source
