MoE comes from SoV, otherwise exchange is pointless... DOGE has no MoE because it has no value. The two cannot be separated.

It's less decentralized because no value creates no incentive to run or mine it.

It doesn't need Lightning because the blocks are rapid fire, and its supply is more "divisible" which makes ownership orders more scalable. The faster blocks also amount to significantly more blockspace.

When you look at people trying to "improve" Bitcoin today, it's almost like DOGE is their north star, because they don't understand value is all that matters in the end.
