We are assuming with current technology to scale to the total world population.
For everyone to have a lightning channel it would take decades to open all the channels in the network.
Lightning is not scalable unless you give up custody.
Cashu is custodial.
We don't have that protocol yet, so in the current state of things we have to assume that one day we will need custodial in one form or another, in which case my favorite protocol is Liquid and Lightning over Liquid.
