The point you’re missing is that attitudes like yours would have been terrible for Chelsea in the past. English football is built on the football pyramid. Man United, Man City, Chelsea etc have been relegated within the last 50 years. When Man United were winning their treble, City were two divisions below. The pyramid matters no matter what short sighted selfish clubs and fans think.

At the time you’re asking about, there wasn’t a separate PL yet. Let’s say that the PL has agreed to give up 50% of the money in the breakaway. Knowing the EFL, they’d be at the table today asking for more money.

Yes, clubs have gone through changes in fortune over time. Do you think that the PL should be giving 50% of the money away to the EFL or something?
