By default Electrum only opens unannounced channels.
If peers will force close depends on the goal/preferences of the peer I guess, but the hardecoded nodes that get shown in the Electrum GUI if you have Trampoline enabled are unlikely to force close even if you are offline for a longer time.
If you open channels with some random nodes the risk is probably higher that they will force close if you lock up a lot of their liquidity for longer time.
Btw, you also don't need to create additional channel backups in Electrum as it's possible to request a force close from the peer just with the seed backup.

Its perfectly fine to not keep it running 24/7, you can just use it as spending wallet and start it on demand from time to time.

You can also disable trampoline in the GUI on desktop and Android, just uncheck "Use Trampoline" in the Settings.
Gossip has the downside that it takes quite some time to sync and has ~100mb, so Trampoline is usually better UX if you just want to open the wallet and pay a invoice quickly.

Not exactly sure how Muun wallet works, but iiuc in muun you only have a onchain balance and if you pay a lightning invoice its a swap :? Also Muun has no marketplace for swap providers, so you can only swap with them and have to pay their fee.
In Electrum you can open lightning channels, and as a result you have a separate onchain and lightning balance. And if you want to move sats between lightning and onchain you can either open/close channels or do a swap (with a counterparty you can discover via nostr and choose the cheapest or e.g. most reputable from).

Submarine Swaps are a way to trustlessly move bitcoin from your lightning balance to the onchain ("normal bitcoin") balance (or reverse) without opening or closing channels.
So essentially you can send from lightning to an onchain address or reverse.
Swaps require a counterparty (that does the opposite of your swap, e.g. you send on lightning, the counterparty receives lightning and sends you onchain bitcoin), this is usually a company providing this as a service (e.g. Boltz). Electrum now instead allows anyone to become this counterparty and announce their server on Nostr. This creates a market for swap providers. Regular Electrum users then can see these servers in the wallet, choose the cheapest one and swap with them.
Why would you run a swap server? Mostly to earn fees.
Why would you do swaps as a normal wallet user? For example to move liquidity to the other side of your channel, so you can receive incoming payments again. You could also try to obfuscate your onchain history (increase the privacy of your bitcoin), by opening channels and swapping out of them again, so the link of your transaction history is broken on chain.

Wissol uses a payment provider called Keepz which has QR codes at the gas stations you can scan and pay for with bitcoin, but only onchain. Citipay also seems somewhat spread in Georgia.

Using the NWC plugin daily, one cool thing for example is that you can run Electrum as daemon (headless, no GUI) on some server.
You can now also do submarine swaps over nostr to get inbound liquidity, there is also documentation on how to run a swap server to provide liquidity for submarine swaps:

This is for advanced users that want to earn fees.

I totally agree that it would be really confusing for existing bitcoiners, especially as not every exchange/wallet would adopt it. I don't think it has a real chance of happening either.
Although thinking from the perspective of a nocoiner, I imagine the benefits would outweigh the confusion due to the arguments above.
Maybe people like the word "sats" more than I think, idk, i just feel like sats is not a good name for a monetary unit, and bitcoin has good branding already.
The unit itself (the current sat) is great though.

Speaking from the experiences I made in my circles/culture/language I think the word "bitcoin" is just easier to use and more well known already.
If I tell a nocoiner about a "Satoshi" they usually haven't heard of it before, and it feels kind of weird because its the name of a "Person" rather than a neutral thing. Sounding somewhat Asian makes it even worse for acceptance with more traditional folks as it feels a bit foreign.
Just my vibes, I don't think this will get changed tbh as its years too late, but it would be nice imo.
