It is disingenuous to call stealth addresses the recipients address. They are addresses that are derived from the recipients address but can’t be tied back to the receiver except by the receiver themselves, so point 2 is basically a lie the way most people would interpret it.
Payment channels are not even a contender for privacy in comparison. Unless this new channel uses some technology im unaware of, it’s using Lightning’s centralized, easily monitored tunnels. No reason to put a bandaid on top of a already flawed system
