Re: Webinar Slides

I'd think about it in terms of use cases. If you have a larger payment and
need the guarantee that money cannot be lost, it would be worth it to
involve notaries. For smaller payments between more disparate parties
Universal might make more sense.

You're right that atomicity is desirable rather than needed. If there is
more risk without it that will show up in higher fees though. In any case,
this tradeoff is precisely why there are the two modes.
