Except that, contrary to what you have strongly implied in your post, Liz knows how she will pay it back.
Go down Rishi’s route and there will not be enough money to help people with their bills. Is that what you want?
Liz Truss intends to cut bills, by such measures as removing the green levy and reducing tax on petrol, which is non-inflationary because that brings prices down. It will be paid for in a number of ways, for example by using existing headroom in the economy, by growing the economy, and making the UK a more attractive offer for investors.
