Comparing Bitcoin and ETH is not really helpful here. Just too different  and both too complex in all points like owner structure, setup, parameters ...

Just not possible to derrive much from each other - but very good for politics.

Correct ETH has sheep nodes, who obey the developers without a second thought and push through any idiotic hardfork the developers so desire.

While the bitcoin nodes are more independent, cautious, and rational, who are skeptical about any powergrab the developers might push through. Older bitcoin developers did try powergrabs, but they were rejected. Bitcoin is more sovereign that is a crucial distinction.

What power is there to grab and who is the current holder of such power?

Or are you full of shit?
