Yes. Having centralized ownership (to whatever extent) is a concern for sure, but it's a hypothetical concern in and of itself: "what if the leadership does bad things?" Is different from "the leadership is currently doing bad things."
Decentralization helps. But if the networks effects aren't behind it, jumping from platform to platform when things DO get bad is also viable.
Yep. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good.
