This is where I am at with setting up a lightning node:

Core Lightning:
- Has support for a fallback address.
- Doesn't have encrypted static channel backup. It could be possible to use ZFS to mirror an ecrypted volume.
- Unclear how well supported configuring a watch tower. There is a plugin, however will need to test it more.
- Has support for Commando that makes connecting to the node remotely only require opening one port. This is useful for setting up a Lightning Address as well as connecting a mobile interface. This however is not yet supported in Zeus yet.
- Has plugin support for additional functionality.

LND:
- More clear watch tower support.
- Has a static encrypted channel backup that can be uploaded to a remote server.
- Seems to have more application support, such as Zeus, as well as channel managent scripts like Balance of Satoshi.
- Can run with Nuetrino for lighter disk requirements.
- Doesn't yet have an automatic fallback address (non-reused), there is however a pending issue to support this feature.
- Has support for managing liquidity through Loop and Pool. And also apparently an LSP, though I have not found how to configure it.
- Doesn't have plugin support.

It's kind of a split between the two still.
