No. Channel balancing is still close to a zero sum game. You could have an allowed pot of fee money that the node can use that has to be topped up manually.

Rebalancing requires routing transactions through other nodes, subject to fees. If the wallet is unable to assess the route selected, a compromised node could be made to select attacker-controlled, high-fee routes as a means of extracting funds.
