But the only thing that places Bitcoin Segwit in the Bitcoin position is it is the chain with the most accumulated proof of work. When Bitcoin Cash surpasses Bitcoin Segwit in that measure, then Bitcoin Segwit will cease being Bitcoin, and Bitcoin Cash will become Bitcoin. Just as satoshi designed.

Sure, it is arguable whether that event should ever come to pass. But them's the breaks.

BCH had far more proof of work for quite some time because of the broken difficulty mechanism. i didn't see a mass defection then or a zombie-like pivot when all the users realised there was more work.

most people don't understand that and certainly don't care about it.

bitcoin is the bitcoin that people decide it is. it doesn't matter about technical stats on whatever chain.

there are now millions of people who didn't get this for free. that's a whole lot more convincing that'll need to be done and it can't be done.

it looks like BCH has an increasingly interesting future.

as bitcoin? nope.

I agree with your statments. Nevertheless I do not understand why there are so many poeple hating it. It seems it has a great opportunity as a Money Transaction Service. Not sure, whether it Needs to be a discussion about either / or. Time will tell.
