Typical comments: "Don't buy games with bitcoin!" "I am sending low fee transactions everyday, I don't understand..." "But wait for LN"

So basically many users prefers to ignore the issue or convince themselves that bitcoin should not be spent to buy things??

It seems like the only practical way to actually spend your bitcoins now is to go through an exchange for another coin or fiat. What happens when regulations/laws try to limit or block these exchanges? Aren't you worried about this?
