Bitcoin not being a perfect payment system doesn't mean it is not a payment system used by many people to pay for something. Whether or not I, as an individual, used it for payment doesn't change that fact either.

if it was meant to be a payment system then it should always be designed with that goal in mind. at the forefront to make sure that any new feature would not allow it to be used for something else.

SegWit is NOT a way to store "arbitrary data" in transactions. It is a way to fix malleability and also help the capacity increase of this payment system.

it does if the "abuse" goes on for a long enough period of time.  Shocked
