I'd agree. Having one large instance isn't necessarily bad. Yes, it gives the admins quite some power, but they're obviously doing something right there. And the federated aspect is still baked into the software and present. Once they act out, all the content is replicated everywhere else and people can just switch to another instance. This isn't the same like a centralized platform. Even if people mainly use one instance.
