Bitcoin unlimited = Hardfork
Hardfork is quite risky if there is so much debate between community like we have right now.

The point is however, that *undoing* a hard fork, is a soft fork, and undoing a soft fork, is a hard fork.

So while it may *seem* that a soft fork is "softer", in fact, going back is harder.

Community is divided between two distinct solution BU and Segwit

Not really.  The community is divided between:

1) bitcoin as it is (immutability)

2) modifications, such as:
a) BU, XT, .... who undo the limit of 1 MB that Satoshi introduced as an anti-spam measure
b) segwit
