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.

A doodler and computerer. I like permissive/permissionless open source, smart contracts, p2p systems, room-scale VR, and NixOS.

Currently: WhatsABI

They're both anchored though.

And to me "loose" feels worse than "light"?

How about "anchored" vs "floating"?

Or "strict" vs "loose".

strong vs fast maybe?

light simply sounds... worse than strong.
