try to see Bitcoin Cash as the backup for Bitcoin 2.0 (Segwit). if anything goes wrong Bitcoin Cash will take over.
why would i choose another failure in case of failure? it's better to walk away from the whole thing and forget about it. if there has to be a 'replacement' then litecoin looks a lot more reassuring as a solid prospect.
I sense some denial here. In your mind, a coin that rockets to #4 essentially upon release is a failure?
I mean, sure - it has not supplanted Bitcoin Core. But the ink ain't dry on this as of yet. Not by a long shot.
That said, I'm not onboard with the 'backup' characterization, but whatevs...
What will you do if the Bgold fork instantly reaches a higher CMC rank will you class that fork as more successful ?
