Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

There is no "official bitcoin client".  One has to wonder about hese "news" services when a simple fact like that is missed.

Edit: this sounds like an ESL article or a bot translated article.

Core developers aware of any problem that may occur if segwit2x hard fork be implemented.
But, I think this problem should be can be solved through consensus which segwit2x has gain over 92% support from the miners.
Then, core develoers stated don't want to give more power to miners, not sure what it means but if segwit could resolve bitcoin problems regarding high fees and confirmation time, then no need to another hard fork. At least, we still have 2 months before segwit2x hard fork will be implemented, at this period, segwit should be able proven itself as reliable scale solution.
