It's true that decentralization will decrease if/when Bitcoin nodes require significantly more resources to run. But LN isn't good for decentralization either.

It's true that decentralization will decrease if/when Bitcoin nodes require significantly more resources to run. But LN isn't good for decentralization either. Most big blockers want to maintain decentralization as well, they just think that it's better to try to scale the blockchain instead of scale via third party companies.
