 I think yes if we actually want the world to use Bitcoin for payments.  
 This is a question i grapple with...if you build for the world do you just end up with lowest common denominator dogshit ? Or do you build the tool that are robust and can allow some people to opt out and create economies outside the dogshit.  I dunno the answer  
 The web was mostly awesome until normies showed up. Do I want the world to use bitcoin for payments, maybe. I don't care if it's not LN. Maybe LN is like PHPBBS. Forums were niche back then and way more fun. The world came around and eventually adopted the web. Out of that we got Facebook.
