I strongly disagree with this. We should be scaling Bitcoin as fast as we
can. There is no reason to delay scaling for the purposes of keeping fees
high. If we need fees to be higher, we can lower the block size or increase
the default minimum relay fee rate.
Also, the idea that use of the LN is there primary cause of recent low fees
is highly dubious.

Reminds me of that old saying, "nobody goes there anymore, it's too
crowded". ; )
