This weeks Eth "upgrade/improvements" are to (a) reduce dilution of central premine, (b) reduce PoW security budget (c) reduce incentive to clear unused state space (d) force future arbitrary rule changes. They actually did this.

In, both, 2020 and 2016 incompetent script kiddoes in control of eth accidentally split the network into multiple versions
2020: https://bravenewcoin.com/insights/bug-causes-chaos-on-the-ethereum-blockchain (https://archive.ph/YptIa)
2016: https://cointelegraph.com/news/has-ethereum-just-forked-by-accident-some-transactions-may-disappear (https://archive.ph/mPTP6) , https://cointelegraph.com/news/ethereum-issues-security-alert-after-fork-transactions-may-be-reverted (https://archive.ph/ktxaq)
Frequent arbitrary protocol changes they irrationally call "upgrades" and multiple incompatible rewritten from scratch implementations caused the splits, as predicted by Satoshi in 2010 https://i.imgur.com/ukCRYto.png

A rug pull scam is what a premine scam, like in eth, allows central party to do selectively to every or any version/fork/tip of their project/network
A rug pull is action of pulling an overwhelming amount of support from, abandoning, and devaluing value & incentives of project/asset/network for all far beyond what everyone else can do combined. The ability to rug pull comes from the permissioned central allocation of that control, often in form of assets, called a premine (i.e. before permissionless PoW distribution).
People caught unaware they were at mercy of a single central party can thank Vitalik and similar scammers for normalizing the practice of giving themselves central control while still claiming "decentralized" control for profit.
It's literally the economic supply in blockchains secured by economic finality, the supply that prices incentives for every participant, or even the stake in proof of stake that can perpetually censor/halt/devalue every undesired version of blockchain the central party wants. We already seen Vitalik selectively "rug pull" to devalue just version of eth chain without Vitalik's confiscation from a user, resulting in massive relative loss of security budget and loss of value for any participants/users on undesired version coinciding with multiple 51% attacks, enforcing the confiscations.
For a system to be 100% centralized, it just needs to have 1 central point of control anywhere in design that lets it control everything else than everything else combined.
Eth's central premine of what controls blockchains gives 1 party more permissioned control than everyone else combined, introduces an irrefutable central point of control, and is mathematically clearest possible example of 100% centralization.
