How do users get "economically stuck" if the community rejects the hardfork and value flows out of it into the new one? That's what literally happened with Monero. People are free to come and go to whichever network they want. Welcome to the free market.
Bitcoin Core and Blockstream control what happens to your chain in practice so I can say the exact same thing about main team devs. Even BCH is more decentralized in node software than BTC! 😂

Speaking of losing community members, Monero is winning over previous Bitcoin-maxis left and right. Vlad and Ray Youssef this year alone.

Or you become inflexible and ossified like Bitcoin stuck with pretty much the same surveillance chain it had 15 years ago, have 95% of it's economic activity occur on centralized exchanges, become an NFT blockchain, and fall out of favor with DNMs
