I think I finally solved the mystery:
Why has the Nostr zap economy failed?
Because $0.34 (⚡500) is considered a "fat zap"
(At least by me - thanks for the fat zap @matts !)
Denominations can distort the perception of value and I suspect Satoshis may have altered ours.
A strip club where most patrons threw dimes and quarters, and the baller finance-bros dropped an occasional Lincoln would probably fail too. (It'd be hella funny tho)
It certainly wouldn't attract much talent.
