But you can't do micro transactions on the blockchain - or rather, everyone can't do microtransactions on the blockchain because it's fundamentally anti-scalable and has to transmit every transaction to every full node.

(LN does not solve this unless you re-centralise on a common broker with whom you have a channel!)

This doesn't solve any of the other problems such as microfraud or friction either.
