You are extrapolating your situation > global situation. Millions if not billions of people don't have access to the credit opportunities you describe. Certainly I don't, living in the country in europe I live in.

That is absolutely true, but the fact it is possible in some places does lead me to believe this is not a benefit of DeFi, but a benefit of well developed banking infrastructure.

DeFi might be able to provide this, but we don't need DeFi to get it.
