I need 4 tickets though, so it’s a 4k decision. The airport time is going to be roughly 9 am in both directions, if that matters.
Yes, if it’s all on one ticket it’s LH who are responsible, 4 & you are.

You could buy travel insurance in case you misconnect, some policies offer that kind of protection.
