you do know that LN can function without segwit.
the benefits of segwit helping LN and helping bitcoin are exaggerated.

however there are many many other concepts that dont need segwit.
but the powerhouses choose their own partners even if it means making the community wait
its just kicking a stone down the road to explain a year delaying real scalability.
but thats a topic for another discussion.
