That’s correct :)

Thank you for explaining @Hafeez & @Johan
Now that all the BIPs necessary for LN including SegWit (Softfork) are active 
on the mainnet, are we just waiting for the LN implementation to mature or are 
there any other issues? ᐧ

Hi,
Before you can safely broadcast the funding transaction, the two parties 
involved in a channel must have signed a commitment transaction spending the 
output from the funding transaction. Without segwit, the funding transaction 
can be malleated, leaving the commitment transaction invalid, and funds locked 
up if one of the parties stops cooperating.

Cheers, Johan

Why is SegWit required for LN? If we wait for the funding transaction to be 
confirmed , we can then safely create and update unconfirmed commitment 
transactions...
I don't see how SegWit is important here... Am I missing something?
