I think it is much more easier, convenient and even safer to use centralized exchanges for trades because we no longer have to pay for an external escrow and most times don't have to panic over the safety of our coins while indulging in trades.

What are you talking about? Centralized exchanges lock accounts, freeze coins, or just straight up scam/go bankrupt all the time. You are handing complete control of your coins over to a third party, who can (and often do) do anything they like with them. With a good decentralized exchange like Bisq, the coins stay under your control until the trade is complete. There is no possibility for them to steal your coins since they never have them in the first place. A good DEX is exponentially safer than a CEX.

By using a centralized exchange, you will not be doing anything against Bitcoin principles.

I mean, literally the first page of the Whitepaper:

Quote

What is needed is an electronic payment system based on cryptographic proof instead of trust, allowing any two willing parties to transact directly with each other without the need for a trusted third party.

A centralized exchange is a "trusted" third party. I use quotation marks here because I wouldn't trust any centralized exchange with a single satoshi of my money.
