Though I could also point out that the original decision was 32MB per block, not 1MB or 4MB.

Yes, but 1 MB is what most of the nodes accepted. It is mainly about backward-compatibility.

No, it is simply that core is completely against it, they prefer to use the fake excuse of never doing a hard fork.
Heck I've asked such questions of them back in 2011 - and got nowhere with it.
e.g. one of a number I've done:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=51504.0

When core wanted to force miners to use Segwit, there was also BIP100 that got greater than 70% block coinbase approval with the mining community.
Alas core didn't want it and that was the end of it.

core has no power - the users have - don't spread lies!

Users had nothing to do with segwit being implemented at all.
The pools agreed to it on the basis of also adding more changes later.
Alas core didn't do the later changes.

again: core has no power. same goes for the pools. users run the software, if you don't agree with the software/rules, don't run it. btw. core developers are also users of the software they are developing. but i guess we are getting off topic here
