74% of NEM is held by only 100 accounts, which looks worse until you release that almost 2/3 of that 74%, (e.i., half of all XEM) is money being held not by individuals but by funds held in multisig accounts set aside for massive development and ecosystem projects.

Why would we exclude those 74%? They are included in the market-cap. What that means is that price is going to get even lower as more and more of those 74% are sold, given away, released, etc.
You also keep ignoring that there are dozens of PoW and PoS coins (example, Mintcoin, Crypti, node, etc) that have same and even better distribution, but they are failing as there is no interest. Fair distribution is absolutely no guarantee of success. In fact, if you go by recent stats, coins launched by that "fair distribution" slogan (look for example NFD, or Auroracoin that had thousands of times bigger distribution than Nem) are already dead.
