How do people feel about "strong L2" vs "light L2" as umbrella terms for things with unconditional security (rollups, plasma, channels) vs things with partial security (validiums, pre-confirmations...) that's still better than a multisig?

Copying over this diagram from a few months ago: Proposing to rename "security-favoring" and "scale-favoring" to "strong" vs "light", to be more succinct.

Light feels like it's worse than strong, when in reality it is a different tradeoff entirely.

How about Fortified L2 vs Agile L2 Focus on the benefits of each. Fortified's strength is security, and Agile's strength is speed/scalability

if we could do it all over, I’d propose using “L2” as now and “L3” for the next category of security-guarantee. Make the dominant term we use (and which ordinary users are exposed to) about security-level and not architecture.

'full security' vs. 'partial security'? 'partial' is a good way to describe training wheels rollups in general, as they are still getting something but the name by itself highlights that the rollup is not fully inheriting security

i like this...light implies light weight in my mind so it inherits some of the properties of a full L2

seems fine- might go with lite (limited integration tradeoff efficiency)

I would say “Full L2” or “Complete L2” vs “L2 Validium”

Strong kinda implies the other is weak Light kinda implies the other is heavy I am by no means qualified to judge if either of these are/aren’t true, but people will subconsciously make the mental inference based on those terminology

I’m not sure strong and light works well together. “Closed Loop L2” - rollups, plasma… “Open Loop L2” - validiums…

Who is your audience? I talk to ecosystem people (devs, investors etc) who can't figure out which category half the chains fit in. Much less normals. I don't think this wording helps that at all... So...
