Reads a bit as if you're jumping to conclusions there.
A significant share of all people who're interested in Bitcoin almost per default distrust the big companies when they're offering something to the public, pretending it's not for their profit motive and instead for the good of society.
That's just one reason.
Another: a newly created currency won't have the network effect on its side, at least at first. It'll somehow have to overcome it to compete.
Conclusion for me: the Bitcoin devs and miners and full node runners and end users should be very alert about any changes to the protocol, because there are of course always great malevolent forces, solely serving corporate interests, trying to change the system for their benefit. And I think many see the issue and thus are alert.
