Is there any incentive for miners to pick segwit transactions over
non-segwit transaction.  Do they require less, equal, or more compute to
process?

From what I understand, in SegWit, the transaction needs to be serialized
into a data structure that is different from the current one where
signatures are separated from the rest of the transaction data.

Why change the format at all? Why cant we just compute the Transaction ID
the same way the hash for signing the transaction is computed?
