Imagine a large number of channels frozen, their balances never to become liquid again. Or large scale theft due to LN contract bugs (see hacked DeFi/DAO contracts).

The anti-ASIC stance is futile as well, what is the alternative? Benevolent central planning of anti-ASIC forks every 6 months, while hoping the planners have no prior hidden investments in whatever technical specs are chosen?

Agreed.
the biggest mistake here is to say "the more scalable the network the more centralized it becomes" when it is actually the opposite: the lack of scaling makes all mining based on hash which centralizes the entire network. Scaling open fees & new markets.
you can see Ray is a communist by his aversion to profesional mining.
going by that, of course he is upset at big blocks sonce that puts even more pressure on miners / nodes
