See I don't think we will find out. Because with so much uncertainty regarding what amounts to a hostile takeover, the ones mining the takeover attempt are putting their investments at massive risk when sticking with core is a safe way to maintain a stable economy, with or without segwit.
It may be safe technically to stick with core, but not economically, since they have failed in their leadership to scale Bitcoin and even seem to be anti on-chain scaling.
This is the reason that miners are starting to move away from them. Those miners see the economic risk as an even greater threat.
