> All is visible in the LN invoice
LN invoices do not reveal the recipient, the sender, and they optionally request a specific amount, but do not even reveal how much of that amount the recipient gets. So no, not all is visible in an LN invoice.
BTW the same is true of a monero address: not *all* is visible in one of those either
But monero addresses reveal more info than LN invoices

Yeah, and monero needlessly throws extra opsec hurdles at users
It is monero's fault that your private keys expose your tx history -- thus enabling the tx lookup attack
It is monero's fault that transactions leak the amount sent, amount received, and time of the transaction -- thus enabling the timing analysis attack
Saying "Well the user shouldn't have made the mistakes that exposed that data" is certainly true, but it's also a problem that monero makes this data so easy to expose
