agreed, but we now see two types of setup mostly: large-scale (10kw+, which i love to see) or those with just a small handful of antminers tucked in a corner. gone are the insane contractions with large, unstackable and varying equipment styles.
heres what my setup looked like about 1 year ago - before the 1w/GH gear started to be shut down and sold/dismantled. now i only have a single s7 in hosting and a few sp3x units i need to sell still

To comment on what you wrote, I think that very soon we are even going to stop seeing the small handful of miners pictures as well. With the halving happened and diff continuing to rise it's going to be a world of only mega-mines very shortly.
I think you're right - but i saw that coming for a while, ever since the antminer S1 made compact, stackable miners a possibility. Its always been profitable where the power and overhead costs are cheap, and basic rules of industry dictate that mega-____ can almost always beat mom&pop-_____'s profit margins. The world of digital, funible assets is a capitalist/industrialist's wetdream, and i suspect all mining will physically decentralize while selling shares/hosting that creates better decentralisation of mining revenue/coin-creation
