"troll" and, even worse, "concern troll" are terms generally used by
teenagers on places like Reddit to complain about someone who doesn't
agree with them. It is not rally a valid term to use in technical
discussions. Several of the developers on here act as bullies by
wielding power they have accumulated in a a system which they claim is
decentralized. It is not clear at all so your premise is faulty.

What exactly do you expect? Bitcoin is not a charity, it is built on
incentives.

Only a very small minority of the developers have "integrity and trust."
Most are pretty irrational and untrustworthy if you look at their
discussions outside of their technical expertise. Bitcoin is not
supposed to have a model where users are not forced to trust a small
group such as the core developers. It sounds to me like you suggest
giving that up the idea of decentralization so you can gain control over
the "official" software releases.
