I agree with this even if I do not like bitcoin cash and I think the core developers are right in their vision anyone has the right to fork the code and make changes to bitcoin if they think that is going to improve the network, then all becomes a matter of which one is the superior product if the ones that created bitcoin cash are right we will find out in the next 5 or 10 years maybe less, but if the core developers are right we will find out in the same amount of time, either way we win since we get a stronger bitcoin as a result.

I sort of stand in the same boat, BCH is a good experiment and it is good to have another roadmap going for cryptocurrency as a whole. Whichever option is the best solution will exist to keep dominating in years to come.
Personally I wish we just went with the Segwit2x fork and everybody agreed on it. This kind of infighting and bad press is terrible for us as a community and it has to end.

The issue with bcash is the main promoters behind it, whom are always on the offensive and misleading people. You do not see any other altcoin marketing themselves by trying to hog the name of bitcoin and insulting the people whose code they copy pasted, or twisting facts to suit their narrative.  You never see anyone coming out and saying "I am the CEO of bitcoin cash".
If it wasn't for all this controversy I think BCH would have had a much more dominant position in the market. Ironically the people who are promoting it killed it.

And I do hope the newbies win their court case against bitcoin.com. Those links on their site is clearly and intentionally misleading.
