Right. I guess that multi-sig implementation is the best example of how something useful and on which we all agree could be implemented into Bitcoin. Categorical true.

There is no community here except by extension.  Intensionally, that "community" is a bag of conflicting power nexii.  Everyone is there to fulfill their agenda.  For the most part that agenda involves some form of extortion.  You can meaningfully call the people allied to a single power nexus a community, but when the agendas are conflicting its hard two see how those nodes can be seen to be part of a single "community", which traditionally means people who have the common interests of a locale and live together in interactive cooperation, whether perforce or by choice.

Rather than say "anything that is missing" you could say "anything which a critical mass of the most advanced controllers of power constituencies find un-threatening and perhaps personally aggrandizing" can be added to Bitcoin.   In practice that is a very, very small universe of features.  It is a shrinking universe of features.  As market cap grows, and the existential threat to fiat systems starts to hit radar screens around the world, and the number of control points diminishes with increasing centralization, you can be sure that universe will shrink even more rapidly, and the reins that steer it will choose very different directions.
