Sounds to me like users experiencing exuberant fees only counts as a defacto liveness failure in the region of Ethereum, but otherwise it's just a sparkling tradeoff on Solana.

the real pmf of narrow fee markets is being able to claim "lower median fees" and gaslight users with "works for me" while they try to interact with congested contracts

at the limit, load balancing hot spot contracts runs into similar interop challenges as based rollups, without any of the other benefits of rollups

Better experience for whom exactly? Making it better for the median user does not make it better for all users.

It does not make it better for the people trading $TRUMP after a news event. It does not making it better for the person who is about to be liquidated on a busy lending contract.

If everyone wants to go through a single door then the issues with demand will always be there, no matter what chain it is on

The difference is that isolating the demand to that app/contract makes it a better experience for all the other users on that network who want to perform an action with any other app/contract
