if you have a bunch of decentralized nodes for jpeg storage and >1 devs (that actually do nothing)
then I guess you have accomplished the main principle driving Bitcoin?
the main issue of contention is not decentralization, but whether Bitcoin is still a monetary Network or not.
They think it is not, so it doesn't make sense to maximize decentralization anyway. That is an understandable viewpoint for me because I've been concerned about the direction of Bitcoin for years.
You think it IS still a monetary Network, therefore they're insane for forking off and sacrificing that decentralization.
Simple.
