If seemed so, it wasn't my presumption. Again, I remark, I'm talking about my direct experience at different tables. Tables that infortunately broke, sooner or later.This post seems to presume that everyone wants to play the way you play. That's simply not the case. A lot of people enjoy the traditional playstyle where the DM has more control and they don't want the reins loostened, or to skip the "fill-in stuff." Hell, they don't even see it as "fill-in stuff." That's a preference of yours, and a lot of people enjoy playing that way, too.
And you are right, in those cases the players did not want to even talk about sharing some content authority, introducing scenes, discuss a different approach with the Gm, to the point of give up playing when the situation was no more bearable.
The counterpart of Gm-decides, is Players-abide.
They wait for the Gm to do the right thing, and don't try to be part of the solution, because it would be like metagame cheating.
(IME, in my town, with the last four or five different groups I played in)
