If a side chain has a consensus mechanism and blocks, it's not a layer 2, it's just another blockchain sitting along side bitcoin.
You don't scale a blockchain by adding other blockchains on top of it. Why?
- Because you're just inflating the block size limit by creating more block space and
- Blockchains don't scale, by design. So you're not actually solving the problem
