What? They’ve been supporting segwit addresses for years

[janandonly]

You can do a Segwit transaction with an “old” Pay-to-Script-Hash (P2SH) transaction. That is an address that starts with "3".

You only get the transaction size discount with “native” segwit transactions that are BECH32.

Well that chart is plainly wrong or outdated. This is a random coinbase transaction from 2021 and it pays out to all kinds of addresses including P2WPKH/P2WSH.
