Modularization sounds very hardcore, but for end users, it boils down to two things: first, how long do you have to wait and how much gas do you need after clicking confirm; second, whether crossing back and forth will confuse you. Recently, I've been monitoring the packing rhythm and found that some chains' congestion seems to be "isolated" a bit, so the main chain isn't completely clogged, and the experience is indeed smoother, but the cost is that risks like bridges, validation, and rollbacks are more hidden in the background, invisible during normal times, only becoming apparent when something goes wrong.
By the way, these days, when the funding rates are extreme, the group is again arguing about whether to reverse or continue squeezing the bubble. I personally care more about whether there's a sudden spike in gas and more reordering signals on the chain... My friend even teased me, "You don't look at the K-line when checking the market, you stare at the transaction fees like you're reading an ECG." I don't know either, used to just playing it safe.
