Good luck gaining consensus (albeit 75% isn't consensus) for the HF before April. I'll push veto myself.
You are aware that the soft fork also has activation requirements, right? Good luck seeing that in "April" (Those quote marks are sarcastic by the way.)
Pretty much everyone agrees that segwit adds necessary functionality, even if Classic supporters want it implemented
after a hard fork. Segwit has massive support among the dev and miner communities, up to and including Classic devs. (Yes, it's a little pathetic that Toomim refuses to work on making Classic compatible and wants Core to do it for him, but that's a separate issue)
