Spot on, anything you trust to provide a service to you like StackerNews or relays might as well be an ecash provider to you at the same time (or technically the moments before).
It could even be better, less trusting with ecash: If I need to pay 1000 sat upfront to be able to use relayprovider A for 100 messages, I'd rather store 1000sat as ecash with relay provider B, and slowly drain it for 10 esat per message.
Should / could then even be possible to withdraw 100 SATs after 90 messages if the service gets worse
