Bitcoin keeps getting further away from a platform where anyone can run a node and process their transactions for little or no cost. Hopefully that is why they are dropping support. Lighting network will make it even more centralized, similar to how ripple works. Which sure, it saves banks money, but that isn't the point.
Cryptocurrencies are supposed to decentralize money exchange, so you don't have to trust (and pay) a middleman.
