Because Bitcoin is not only software, you dingus. The 1 MB block size cap is implemented in the software, but the coopting grows far beyond that into the social realm, into the networks of developers and businesses that control not only the code but also their branch of the project.
The code is open source and anyone can change it.
No, they cannot. You have no idea how things work if you believe that. You must submit proposed changes; Bitcoin Core and Blockstream get to decide if they go in.
There's no such thing as "The original vision of Satoshi Nakamoto" or a bitcoin that "is closest to the original".
Bullshit. Read the whitepaper and Satoshi's comments on bitcointalk. Calling BTC "Bitcoin" is like calling the Pythaogrean theorem "a+b=c" and then astoundingly you have the audacity to say shit like "there is no original meaning of Pythaogrean theorem." Get fucking real kid. Bitcoin is a socioeconomic design, a novel invention, defined by the white paper. BTC is not Bitcoin and stopped being so a long time ago.
It's not a red herring. You made a claim that BTC was corrupted and nefarious actors are taking it over.
Why isn't that in the code?
Why are the miners, users, node operators, and developers all in agreement?
The code is open source and anyone can change it.
You have yet to make a valid argument defending your wild accusation.
Quit wasting my time.

The original bitcoin was buggy as fuck, and had to be patched thousands of times.
You're chasing a dragon. This argument is pointless because the market will decide.
Not "taking over," long ago took over.

You're nuts. Bye
