But why can’t the sender choose? Won’t that increase decentralization and stronger free market dynamics?

You create a transaction, it goes to the mempool of all Bitcoin Node, the miner choose which transaction include in the next block.

There are about 20 mining pool, an 10000 solo miner who try to mine a new block.

This is how bitcoin works, and can't works in any other different way

But why can’t the sender also have the option to choose?

How can you identify a miner? If 1000 transaction choose 1000 different miner, they mine a block with one transaction each?

If a miner mine a transaction destinated to another miner, what happen?

Doesn't work, no one blockchain works in this manner.

Thanks for explaining. I’m not technical so it’s nice to have these thought experiments to understand the protocol better
