>> but in terms of his vision of the world more united where it is easier to send and receive money without paying outrages fees, he definitely failed on that promise. <<

It was Bitcoin that failed to deliver that promise, not him.

Or both. Bitcoin and Coinbase each have outrageous fees.

Depends on the kind of transaction you are doing. For bigger transactions it is actually nice not having to pay percentual fee as with Bitcoin. However with coinbase I believe they are high percentually.

You can pay 1$ for a BTC transfer, so outrageous.

I recently paid $50 for a BTC transfer, and it took 16 hours to get into a block.

You can easily buy fee free on coinbase if you use buy orders instead of market buys.

This changed in 2019 (https://ethereumworldnews.com/end-of-coinbase-pro-introduces...).

At this point, there is no way to trade for free on Coinbase or Coinbase Pro. However, maker orders do still have a lower fee vs taker orders on Coinbase Pro, depending on the pricing tier / how much you trade per month (https://help.coinbase.com/en/pro/trading-and-funding/trading...).
