 Throwing statements about with no explanation does not help your case.

So why dont you explain to me what makes it a Kludge?


Also, I tried not insult you so please try and not to insult me.

I never said segwit itself was a kludge. (its inelegant at best)

If you read back to my original post, I asked you about how making segwit SF-able was a kludge.  Maybe answer that question.

segwit should be a HF. Making it a SF is political and destroys most of their credibility.

Again why is segwit as soft-fork a kludge? because Gavin the FUDster said so? Its a much better to have soft-forks then hard forks and allows capacity to be increased immediately. With hard forks the entire network has to move before anybody gets benefit.

Is not the big motivation to increase capacity?

How do you feel about the segwit kludge of pushing its commitment into the coinbase tx? You ok with that design approach?  What was the motivation for it? Expediency, efficiency or just so that they would not have to sell segwit as an evil HF?
