i dont think you understand, to buy a cup of coffee is now 20 dollar fee, you think the miners are still earning the same?
From your post its pretty clear you don't understand how the whole system works.
Miners dont have to give up on the 'high fees'. With segwit the median transaction is cheaper, but miner still earn the same.
In addition to that the extreme 'rise of the fees' comes from the BTC value rising up so high. The satoshi amount didn't increase that much - just the countervalue.
Please first read yourself into the functionality of bitcoin and the problems/solutions included before making posts which don't make sense.
A shift from the every-day currency to a store of value has been visible for quite a few months.
