I would say that every answer in your list blocks the blockchain technology mass adoption.
It seems that the authorities don`t want a more decentralized way to store information.They want everything under their control.Sooner or later the banks will adopt the blockchain ,but without cryptocurrencies.
They want faster transactions with lower transaction fees.
The number of blockchain devs will increase in the future,for sure.

You've got to be a bit more specific. Are you talking about active about hindrance to blockchain technology development? Adoption? Simply awareness? From my full year of daily observation, my feeling is this: there are many developers, tens of thousands perhaps, but only a very small group of perhaps hundreds competent to the level of the lead developers of Bitcoin (core). I think the leads at Ethereum are also highly competent, with different motivations.

I think the next step for development is an ISO certification for academic qualification in blockchain tech. A quick search online shows me at least three certifications for "blockchain developer", but I can't trace any of them to an academic foundation (they're all corporate educators).

the reason is simply because the blockchain technology is used to create cryptocurrencies or in simple terms "money" and when creating money becomes easy as copying some code an doing some basic changes it attracts uneducated people and encourages laziness in others.

why would a developer tries hard when he can make millions by creating some ICO or a premined altcoin and advertise the hell out of it.

There is a FOMO brewing...
