Summary:

The discussion between Joost Jager and Rene Pickhardt focuses on the optimization of routing fee and reliability in Lightning pathfinding. Routing fee refers to the amount paid when a payment succeeds, while reliability is expressed as a probability of route success. Different route options are compared based on these factors, and the challenge lies in offering users a simple way to balance fees and reliability. Joost proposes using a single value between 0 and 1 to control the selection process, where 0 optimizes for fees only and 1 optimizes for reliability only. However, determining the best choice for values in between 0 and 1 requires a formula with a sound probability-theoretical basis. Rene suggests using the harmonic mean instead of a weighted linear sum for combining features in pathfinding. He emphasizes that there is no universal truth in such situations, and practical tests and experience are key to making informed decisions.
