There is nothing inherently more decentralized about ecash mints over submarine swap servers. Both are fundamentally lightning nodes that can be run over tor by a community member.

Ecash has better privacy but also requires trusting the community member(s) with custody. The swap server on the other hand delegates custody to a diverse set of options that users can chose based their desired trust trade-offs.
