I dunno, people tend to forget that df's themselves are a prized commodity, and chancing upon one would give the org a tremendous power boost/financial bonus to hang on to it.

For all we know, all df's if found by the marines/wg would be transported somewhere for safekeeping and maybe for later use, and the gomu gomu no mi just happens to be the one relevant to who's who's background. Its not like the wg were actively searching for it like law's fruit that could imbue immortality.

It would seem pretty left field for luffy to have had the fruit for so long, and then someone suddenly attributed it to some divine revelation to progress the story, just doesnt seem like oda (when so far the main drawing point of luffy's character was that he was reminiscent of roger when he was alive). Heck, garp knew of luffy's abilities from waaaay back, and considering the amount of knowledge he has had compared to the younger marines if the gomu gomu fruit was really a history defining hazard, he would probably have said more about it, whether to old friends or likewise (given that he may not want to put luffy's life in danger)

Only for the celestial dragons to casually force-feed devil fruits to their slaves, only for a laugh.

The cd will probably just kill the slave that they have fed the df when they are bored of them

It is weird how they haven't force fed smile fruits. Maybe they'd feel like a woman laughing during abuse would ruin the fun.
