I disagree, it's essential. We got segwit on bitcoin because we saw it working with a nice big honey pot to motivate hackers on litecoin. This in real time demonstration made a lot of segwit doubters look stupid. Coudl see the same with other tech in the future.

No, we got Segwit on Bitcoin because the community decided to upgrade to Segwit using a UASF to bypass malicious miners. It had nothing to do with Litecoin.

Segwit activation on Litecoin may have helped move the LTCUSD ticker and educate many on what was going on more quickly because of the profit potential. But it was coming to bitcoin regardless.

I don't think there's anything wrong with honest marketing. Its the deceptive marketing I have a problem with. And with litecoin its mostly done by its users, as opposed to something like bcash which is done by the snake-oil salesman leaders.

Litecoin promotion is full of deceptive and outright false marketing.

Again, your opinion. Many smart people disagree and think it can achieve what it claims.
