I'm in the rat race for better grades and projects leading to better jobs. I feel like I'm living just for myself, my parents and maybe 2 children down the line. That seems kind of selfish and boring though, to spend all your waking time to keep 4-5 people happy who would probably be happy anyway. I wish I had a mentor or a vision to motivate me to maybe work for climate change or inequality.
It's the culmination of a years-old debate. Looking at both arguments in a positive light, Bitcoin Cash wants to stick to the original idealistic vision of Bitcoin, and is offering a temporary solution for it. Bitcoin wants a better solution, and is ready to make some ideological compromises in exchange for growing the chain faster and making it easily usable.
I don't think there was anything about the "original idealistic" vision of bitcoin that was explicitly against secure off-chain tx. Rolling back segwit is shooting yourself in the foot because your enemy told you that it was a bad idea.
