the base rate of more-centrally-controlled charitable governance structures effectively optimizing for the charitable endeavor’s stated beneficiaries is pretty low.
I would be interested in your data set here; this doesn’t seem obvious to me.[1]
I assume you mean to say that more centrally controlled charities are worse; if you’re just saying that the base rate amongst both centrally and non-centrally controlled charities is low, then I agree.

I am just saying that without making an assertion that the central or non-central base rate is higher. My reference to low base rates among centrally-controlled charities was an attempt to explain that Michael’s market metaphor could have some significant limitations and yet could potentially be superior to alternative governance approaches.
My own view (noted in a separate comment) is that the nature of the specific community infrastructure function plays a significant role in whether I would predict a centralized vs. decentralized approach to work better.
