It's fairly simple:

I suppose if you're someone who's expertise lies in jingoistic put-downs and not in cryptocurrency-as-a-monetery-medium then it probably looks "fairly simple".

To anyone who can read, bitcoin is defined by majority miner adoption, not majority business adoption.

Miners will therefore decide what chain is "Bitcoin" (the longest) and markets will decide what it's worth.
