Arxiv is for preprints, this is full peer-reviewed publishing. It replaces academic journals, not preprint repositories like arxiv.
> as I understand researchers still pay to publish, no?
They mention Diamond Open Access, so probably not
> initiative could lead to centralization of publishing power
Publishing power is already incredibly centralized in hands of a few oligopolistic publishers
> the problem is not just in access to papers (what about connection to business and real applications)
Not sure what this point means and how it's relevant to this initiative

Idk, seems pretty specific to me
not exactly, they publish first, reviews happen afterwards, often not approved
not exactly, Diamond Open Access - is still an action plan, access is free only for EU-funded researchers (EU commission actually pays)
sounds interesting, who do you mean?
the initiative is about "sharing knowledge". wonder what is the real purpose
"open science", "equitable access", "flagship initiative" etc.
That's not Arxiv's role. Arxiv does not manage any review process. It merely hosts preprints. The reviews will happen if you submit to an actual journal or conference, which is entirely independent of the arxiv submission.
