What middle ground though - how is it a negotiation, them dems have 0 power over whether or not Biden or Whistle Blower or Schiff get Subpoenad.
Zero.
If the Republicans want to call Biden....they can. They don't even need Romney or Collins.
What am I missing?

Know who else didn't care?
The Republican controlled House in 2015, 2016, 2017
The Republican controlled Senate in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and half of 2019
Trumps Administration in 2017, 2018 and 2019 until around the time Biden announced he was running for president.
Another fun fact I just learned on wikipedia that the Dems really shoulda pushed. The shadiest thing Biden did was exaggerate/lie when he was bragging.
The video you see over and over on fox makes it seem like they went and fired Shoken before Biden got on the plane. That's not even what happened. He got voted out by parliament 4 months later.
While visiting Kiev in December 2015, then-U.S. Vice President Joe Biden warned Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko that, if he did not fire Shokin, the Obama administration was prepared to withhold $1 billion in loan guarantees. Biden later said: "I looked at them and said, 'I'm leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you're not getting the money.' [...] He got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time."[35][36] Shokin was dismissed by Parliament in late March 2016.
