Nothing wrong with that???
Again, stop pricing fees in USD. The Bitcoin price grew significantly, and this trend is likely going to continue. The recommended fee-rate is completely disconnected from the price in fiat.
Maybe in your country 1USD is nothing, for many others is something.
I don't care about others (see apathy). That is not my philosophical view, and it would be a very weak one. What you can, and should do, is complain to your miners/pools for not adopting Segwit.
