Given they are open source and we can verify, what other constraints are you considering?

If this becomes the preferred way for people to use nostr, then the nostr client becomes a defacto custodial wallet, even though they may not be focusing on that.
It's a change from a "push" based payment to a "pull" based one. The responsibility for security of customer funds now rests on the nostr client. How much: All of it? None of it? Some of it? Do they even want that?
If an exploit is found, or bug introduced - hackers will very quickly exploit it to its maximum (one of the best things about lightning! but also one of the most challenging). Even with limits set, that can be a lot of money, and a lot of damage to everybody involved.
so: theft. with exclamation marks for charisma. !
I agree, somehow I can't justify to add my wallet details to a nostr app.
I rather open my wallet to pay.
I don't want to have an App X at the end, that does everything, which can turn into bad quite quickly.
