By specifying the dust limit, I was trying to get at the need for some kind of way to accept small value payments.
While the dust limit is currently pretty low value, you'd have to be crazy to sell anything for such a payment size on chain. Honestly, I'd rather not have a utxo worth less than a million sats. If fees go up and I've been accepting 10k sat payments, I'm going to lose a lot of value consolidating.
I figure, any scheme for bitcoin that allows you to accept payment sizes below the dust limit necessarily fixes this problem.
Also stacker news and nostr zaps are great examples of micro payment use cases.
