Since Bitcoin, in your opinion, can't scale well, we should forget about scaling altogether?
Why bother with segwit then? Why not go for *smaller* blocks & foster "decentralization"

Apparently you are unable to read the fine print. Segwit -> IBLT & weak blocks -> LN -> possibly some smaller block size increases and we should be fine for quite some time. LN is a wonder when it comes to 'tps' which becomes actually irrelevant with it (number of channels will matter). The main idea behind Segwit is actually not the increase of the transaction capacity. If you had done enough research you would know that.
Able to read just fine, thanks. SegWit will less than double the throughput.

It's a Blockstream product, not Bitcoin.

You're marketing it as a solution to tps, don't care what the initial thinking behind it was. I was told repeatedly by TPTB tx malleability is a non-issue, now it suddenly is?
