I'm glad you have it all figured out.
Been doing this for 15 years, the mechanism is simple.
Big difference between podcasters and someone posting. I wouldn't call both of those 'creators', a term I don't like much anyway.
I also don't like the term 'tipping'.
Either there's a value flow or there isn't, and zaps currently only provide value to the recipients and the nodes in the lightning network.
If relay providers and apps developers don't participate in that flow, you will see centralization happen just like the early days of podcasting when Apple stepped in.
