Anyway, since cloud and ground are oppositely charged (otherwise you
would not get discharges in the form of C-G lightning),

and C-C lightning shows charge varies within and between clouds

The ground and clouds are both negatively charged (exces of electrons).
Different is the voltage.

So where are the positive charges?
