The part you got wrong is that you think they care about decentralization. Very few people in the crypto spare actually care about it. They say they do, but that's only a part of the sales pitch for their own crypto that they pre-mined.
the BTC dev community did (and still do) a lot of bad things, but the one thing they did right is put their foot down on decentralization even if it meant a bad user experience. If it becomes centralized, then it's nothing more than the most inefficient SQL database and there would be no point in using it to being with.
