Most don't know what segwit IS...
And almost as if he sat down and did his best to prove The One right:
...segwit as a toy for those kids that want to play with it, but "normal bitcoin" needs more room.  So essentially, this is, I think, mainly seen as just a 2MB upgrade, with the concession that those who want to play with segwit, get their toy, but that normal old style bitcoin transactions can continue.....  And whatever happens to the twits that want to use segwit is their affair.  If that code doesn't run very well doesn't matter much ; the normal bitcoin part will run OK.
