Largest problem imo is Lightning UX. Harder to use both privately and fully sovereign. Natural outcome is custodians that can spy on them which is what we see for the vast majority of LN users.
Another uphill battle: defaults.
Blinded paths are not widely adopted and only optional in every wallet I know of that has it.
i.e. They just removed tor from Phoenix wallet a few days ago (not that it was private from ACINQ to begin with, but at least you had easily accessible anonymity before).
I do think theoretically off-chain is the best privacy, but if the design choice is bad, lacking proper defaults, and it's built on a transparent base, it becomes a minefield that not many users will make it across
