It's important not to conflate the present issues with the eventual issues. Eventually, ETH will be an immediate and decentralized distributed value network with extremely low to nonexistent processing fees.

When we are dealing with money, trustlessness means not asking permission. It also means you can review what the code is doing before sending your valuable money to it. We also get a global headless processing center for free.

I think you should re-evaluate your opinions on eth. But, maybe you are right and people are ok with throwing their money into a centralized repository. Maybe visual sourcesafe will make a comeback as well.
