When did I say that it must be the default end goal? This is just you misinterpreting everyone.

first you seemed a little open minded. like it was an option.

Based on all these replies I read, from newbies to Legendaries, I realised that this is something that no one thought of on bitcoin. At least, no one has a solution. Right now we can may payments really cheap, I had made a payment using only 300 satoshis. It took 5 days, but it did. The median is about $2. I've noticed that by paying 1 sat/byte (which is much lower than $2) can take about 1 day to get confirmed. So even if the median reaches $10, we can still make transactions really cheap.

Now, I don't know much about that lightning network, but I'm sure that not every bitcoin adopter will switch on using that.

see your progression from mentioning flaws of bitcoin without a solution and saying lightning is not a solution for everyone.. to then saying things like:
I just think that the lightning network is a more preferable solution and that most of the Bitcoiners use it.

I find LN really cool as a solution to the scaling issue, but there are lots of people believing that due to its existence, it can be globally adopted as a medium of exchange.

I don't want to say again that Lightning brings new things to the table, but I'll have to: It's an innovative solution and does good to everybody.
