At this point, and given HN's POV on BTC, I can't take these statements serious unless you are willing to post the tx hash?
Most of these criticisms seem to be unfounded and only speculative, or you deliberately put a low priority mining fee and feel the need to blame the protocol for that.
The truth is a 30 cent mining fee was clearing all day in the next block, so I struggle to see how this is the fault of Bitcoin mainchain. With that said, as someone already mentioned, LN txs are instant and near free.
