That's not entirely true. One of the lead developers of Lemmy almost blocked infinite scrolling being implemented before the other lead developer stepped in and approved it. This can absolutely happen with other features, other features can get blocked.
There's nothing wrong with having additional optional features through an addon, especially when those features are optional and also don't have to go through an approval process. That's the power of addons.
