Can we not have code that does both?

Can some one answer this, why would it not satisfy both parties?

why could BU people not accept segwit code as this seem to just make the block size more efficient and Segwit people accept BU as this just allows block size to be larger

Are not Segwit and BU solutions orthogonal to each other for the most part and so can both exist in a mutually beneficial manner?

Can some one address this?

I am not an expert on this things but in my opinion when we talk about codes there are several things to consider. The reason why core developer does not accept Bitcoin Unlimited its because it runs on hard fork and it is going away from the original form of bitcoin. Bitcoin Unlimited does not want to accept Segwit since they dont see the code fit to run and replace the current code.
