This has been the issue with Lighting since day one.
There is really no way of doing it properly without committing to 500K to 1000000 sat channels and even the you are at the mercy of so many variables.
Force closes are a massive headache. You can say it is a "skill issue" but I found running a lightning node to be very costly, a huge amount of babysitting, and it just is not yet ready for the average person.
There are some who think that the layer 2 is a shit coin, and they have a point. At the end of the day it is not truly decentralised and has multiple points of failure.
