Threads does have the chance to bring the fediverse into more mainstream acceptance. It may introduce users who wouldn't otherwise know there are alternatives. The net gain may not be one for you specifically, but the concept as a whole. It may not do that, but it can. And the argument against waiting and seeing being Thread users making noise? That seems farfetched. They don't hold leverage at all.
In your mind, who holds the leverage in the fediverse if not the users of it?
Defederation is an instance level discussion. So I'd say the users of that instance absolutely have sway. Folks in other instances have literally zero sway. Admins ultimately have the final sway.
