I am not Satoshi Nakamoto and I think that even if the real Satoshi came out he wouldn't be able to do anything to Bitcoin, Bitcoin is charting its own course and I don't think Satoshi could do anything more than he has done.
Bitcoin has deviated a bit from the path Satoshi wanted, but what could Satoshi do if he came back? Could he stop governments from imposing KYC regulations, money laundering, etc? Could he stop whales and centralized ETFs from buying and manipulating Bitcoin?

You're one of the small few who actually understands what's going on with Bitcoin. The rest simply don't care because they all want to fill their pockets with money. Spot ETFs = higher prices in the long term. But at the cost of centralization. Economic holders can influence developers (and possibly miners and nodes) to make decisions for their own benefit.
Satoshi must be upset with how things are going on for Bitcoin right now. Assuming he's still alive. I, for one, believe we're all Satoshi. Why try to find who created Bitcoin? It's best we don't know who Satoshi is. Otherwise, governments will hunt him down until he's either in jail or dead. And that would bring a lot of negative publicity for Bitcoin. We don't want that. Do we?
Unfortunately, the majority, as you mentioned, want to fill their pockets with money, so they only care about the price, regardless of Bitcoin's deviation from its basic concepts related to decentralization and privacy, however, I am happy that there are still people (especially in this forum) who believe in Bitcoin in its pure concept that Satoshi came up with.
