Bitcoin maximalism vs Just plain better structure...

Because it has the name, everyone looks at bitcoin as the big dog.
And really, bitcoin may become the spot price.
No one swaps to bitcoin (that's almost impossible, unless you buy yachts) but everything is priced in bitcoin.

BCH is good, because of its timing, and it carried over bitcoin holdings, so started with a user base.

LTC is still a better technology AND they do not have 75% of its holding in mysterious, don't know if anyone has the keys, addresses. That may at any time, flood the market with bitcoin.

Also, little known fact, ARRR is backed up onto the LTC network.

Still, BETA lost to VHS... so it may just be a popularity contest... or, something so spectacular happens. That makes the debate just... over.
