Just answer me this one simple question, why would Bluesky meaningfully decentralize when that threatens all of the most lucrative funding models for their product?
More importantly why should I trust the company Bluesky just because of positive anecdotes and descriptions about employees who can be replaced with a flick of a finger?
Until they decentralize meaningfully, this is just marketing people describing phantoms in the sky.
Exactly, ads (or other lucrative monetization schemes) are a form of micro-agression, you have to force them on people and that requires bottlenecks and centralized control.

Otherwise someone else could fork it and replace them.
It’s decentralised in theory just not in practice because of them owning all the relays and appview.
