So miners self-selecting to not mine BCH is proof of BCH mining centralization? I assert that is a useless definition of 'centralization'.
Mining centralization is proof of mining centralization. The market doesn't prefer it.
Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Core are equally centralized / decentralized. Think about it. How could they not be?
Because one is Jihan Wu's coin and does with it whatever he pleases? If he wants to change something, he can. It's his creation after all.
Bitcoin Cash has the advantage of low fees, reliable confirmation times, and the ability to scale to a global payment network.
There is no such thing as reliable confirmation time in any chain, but particularly on BCH..

In 6 hours there should be ~36 blocks, not 11 (and twice it took over an hour for the next one)... but anyway.
