I think it's better to use bitcoin script to bring scalability and privacy to bitcoin users that opt-in.
This prevent bugs on L1 and avoid us forking every months.

What's wrong with forking?
Scripting is not going to expand throughput of the blockchain.
Forking is bad because it splits the market / community . Like with bitcoin cash, our merchants and applications lost a lot of users.
It erode the value and recognizability of the currency.
