Yes, and that's still what it is when I send LN or Ark or Fedimint or Liquid transactions. You cannot scale a braodcast network to everyone in the world. Suggesting otherwise just makes you not a serious person.

Neither of those is Bitcoin. The only one that comes close is noncustodial LN and we know it has plenty of downsides. Scaling always happened vertically (as Bitcoiners intended) and horizontally as Bitcoiners still dismiss despite it being what is taking place in the real world. But don't understand me wrong. It's great to have BTC limited as it is. But it doesn't mean other projects should follow Bitcoin's design decisions. The coin to rule them on is nice fan fiction.
