Why doesn't everyone get SEGMENTAL LEFORT 1 instead of REGULAR LEFORT 1?

TITLE? Will literally widen your palate way more. Does it widen the nose even more than regular LeFort 1? If so then I would understand. Just don't understand cause rn it seems like just regular LeFort 1 but superior.

It does seem to widen nose more. In some cases needs orthodontics, also increases risk of surgery. Some people don't need wider palate.

1. OK, if so then that makes sense, it's just that a guy that I asked said it wouldn't so I got confused

2. You're right, but most people get orthodontics in preparation for jaw surgery anyways

3. True but it's worth it to ascend
 
It works conceptually but never seen anyone ascend with it.

this is it right? wouldnt you be able to grow new bone in those spaces causing more forward growth in the incisor area?

only 1 person answered my question @RealSurgerymax will a segmental lefort 1 widen the nose more than a standard lefort 1?
