a rando on the internet not being to identify the source of a payment says very little about the privacy of a network.
I can do the same thing with a credit card.
that doesn't make it private.

-Would you give your credit card details in a public thread?
-A lot of the time, the privacy that people want is from randos. If it's way harder for randos to identify payments, that's a big privacy boost.
ok then
better than a credit card.
but I assume you know that isn't the point.
people have real privacy needs and that still falls into the category of "cute"
I'm not saying good privacy on LN isn't possible
but that doesn't demonstrate it.
in fact it encourages a misunderstanding of what privacy is.
