Monero is not on many exchanges but not by choice or through lack of trying. Heck, bitcoin is on exchanges and that is also not by choice. But you are focusing on the community, that isn't Monero, so you could say the "Monero movement" fixes this... And power to you. When people say "Bitcoin fixes this", I think a big part of it is how bitcoin incentivises more people to invest in it over time and how when people get burhed, it doesn't just die and so it will continue to gain traction. People who learn about bitcoin learn about money and the evils etc. Then they move away from custodians. Bitcoin fixes custodians too, but it is not an easy or fast battle. If Monero community refuses to make compromises, then Monero stays in a bubble and outside the mainstream. How does that fix anything? Monero does nothing AFAIK to drive adoption or to start the education process. On top of all that, I have never heard the counter-argument to these questions: 1. How can you ever know and/or fix if there is an inflation bug or infinite money glitch? 2. How decentralized is it really if it requires much bigger blocks, beefier nodes, and hard forks are easy to roll out?
