Block weight makes transactions cheaper, which is nice, but its the wrong strategy. Block space is supposed to be scarce. If we just find ways to make it not-scarce, then fees will never reflect the urgency of the transaction. The market was already structured to support mining when the coinbase runs out - segwit broke the economics of mining 100 years in the future, and quite possibly earlier.
