The discussion is centered around the dust limit and anchor outputs in Lightning Network. The possibility of dust limits rising is deemed unlikely, but it is suggested that the anchor size should be reduced if the BTC/fiat price rises and lowers the dust limit to prevent giving away too much free money. Additionally, there is a suggestion to create anchor outputs that are economical to spend and adaptable to changes in fee rates. However, it is noted that the protocol's complexity may pose a problem, and instead of adding more complexity, the state machine should be simplified. Therefore, introducing a new parameter to set the anchor size in the channel opening sequence is proposed to keep all options open and avoid future changes.
