Yes, what I was pointing out is that in a soft-fork there is a risk of an eventual re-org, whereas in a hard-fork there is not. It's a minor risk, but it exists.
I also believe that any non-SegWit miners will be pushed out of the network using the mechanism I described. It would be pretty easy to trick them into mining invalid blocks.
