Yep, I use a custodial wallet for zaps as well. But I've been slowly shifting to Zeus for that also. Regarding the startup, you have the option to skip the express graph sync process now.
Phoenix is a great wallet.
It is actually self-custodial in the sense you hold the keys.
But you can only connect to a specified LSP and only get one channel, which is a tradeoff they make.
You can buy inbound liquidity in advance and you can add liquidity as you receive a payment.
The wallet developers have built their own LN implementation (Eclair) so if they want a particular protocol feature integrated into Phoenix, like Bolt12, they can do it much sooner than other wallets.
