Question from DMs:
Why can't I wrap a zero amount invoice?
Answer:
Because then the lnproxy-relay could accept the payment to the wrapped zero-amount invoice, steal all the money, and pay just 1 sat to the original invoice to get the preimage. I want lnproxy-relays to not be able to steal so that you don't have to worry too much about who's running it.
