I would suggest more to consider the simpler method, despite its larger onchain 
footprint (which is galling), but mostly because I do not see splicing as being 
as important as AMP or watchtowers (and payment decorrelation seems to affect 
how AMP can be implemented, so its priority also goes up).  So I think getting 
*some* splicing design out would be better even if imperfect.  Others may 
disagree on priority.
