Christianity mostly can't be esoteric because one of the central tenants of the faith is one visible Body of Christ (communion of churches) so every bishop has to check every other bishop.
It's too centralized for anything hidden to be confirmed at scale, and if it ceases to be centralized, there has to be a hard fork that simply creates two exoteric traditions.
This is one reason (of several) that Christian Gnoticism failed. When Christian esotericism does happen it's usually in monasteries in the middle of nowhere and as soon as the broader church becomes aware of it, it gets stamped out.
For example early versions of Palamism before the synods taught 4 persons in the Godhead.
