All the zaps that I have received so far, what did I spend them on? Can you tell? Did I even move those sats at all? Where did the sats go after I’ve received them? Less importantly: Is it possible that some of the zap receipts were faked, and thus there’s “zap events” out there that didn’t even move sats at all? Even less importantly: I had many lightning addresses attached to my profile up to now. Is it possible that one of those lightning addresses was controlled by someone else, and not me?

This. I use lightning addresses for my profile and for fundraisers that are controlled by a group. It's not my address, I just have permission to use it. And I have cycled through various addresses. I even changed the wallet behind the addresses. There's an abstraction and obfuscation and deniability layer to Lightning that on-chain simply doesn't have.
