I get what you're saying, but I see it more like:
Car show #1 charges $75 admission, you have to wear the color shirt they approve of, and no Ferraris (the organizer just doesn't like them)
Car show #2 and #3 aren't run by weirdos, so the car community still has somewhere to go.
It sucks to have the crowd spread out, but I still think it's an overall gain to be decentralized.
I think people fetishize the concept of choice far too much, especially when there hasn’t yet been a reason there need to be different instances with different rules.
