Wasn't showing the physical center of the Oasis is still a craphole city with debris, trash, slums, slave pens a decent way of showing if this is Columbus wtf happened to the rest of America?

It didn't go anywhere near the level of the book, but it did not need to go that far for the movie. Parts about needing guards to cross between cities and how much of the world only exists in the Oasis now was left out. All the explaining he did when he was moving out to Columbus and the control of the ISPs and such. He went into a lot of detail about the state of the world in the book.
