There is a lot to the infrastructure of Hive, it's expensive to run these nodes. Also don't forget that the Hive-Engine system also has it's own witness structure.

True but from what I hear that isnt decentralized. It is a valuable Layer 2 but doesnt fit in the decentralized infrastructure narrative.

The witness structure is pretty decentralized. There is one person I know that manages a few different nodes for people, but other than that’s, the nodes are operated by anyone that wants to spin one up. There are even non HE devs that keep the witness software up to date.
