>Full nodes != partial nodes

For clarification, *passive* nodes are full nodes. The differential is whether a node merely runs the consensus rules against blocks it receives (passive) versus creating blocks. The issue with having very few active block creators is that it's a small group, that small group can be coerced or infiltrated. Passive nodes in PoW literally don't have the means to become block creators, at least not in a short timescale. This means PoW has a high risk of central capture, and the very thing you don't want to happen as a user namely

>no one person or groups of people can make more gold appear

is the exact scenario that will happen, with just a dozen parties in control of practically all block production.

PoS on the other hand is easier for anyone to participate in, and therefore remains far more decentralised and robust.

The problem with these discussions is PoW advocates talk theory about imaginary concerns with PoS, whereas when you actually look at facts, like the number of entities it actually takes to make a protocol change, PoS systems are actually well ahead.
