Why BTC devs dont change the PoW so that BTC depend less from miners than now?

Why do we run BTC nodes? If we depend on miners to confirm transactions, what is the use in downloading the entire blockchain to your computer? Should not the nodes confirm those transactions too?

The impression I have is that bitcoin is being kept hostage from miners.
