As far as ruling body, it was accepted immediately and technically, two-handed is just the approach. The release is still one handed. As for a community, lots of people hate it and say it should be banned.
I was away from bowling when the two handers came around. Was that accepted in the PBA immediately or did it have to be ruled in. Guess I am just old school. It just reminds me of my early bowling days when people didn't know how to bowl or care so they threw like that because it looked cool. I realize now that that's not an easy delivery, but I guess I idolize the styles of the greats, Dick Weber, Norm Duke, Earl Anthony, etc.

Do most two handers just put two fingers in the ball? Curious about the release difficulty/accuracy as compared to traditional.

In my opinion, it should have been banned by the PBA. Since it wasn't, if you have a child or a grandchild who wants to learn how to bowl, he/she had better learn two-handed if being competitive is a consideration.
I guess for me it's just a classic traditional hang up. Kind of like if a golfer bent over and did a baseball bat swing and everyone copied it, and it became the next big thing. It could be accepted but it wouldn't be that graceful smooth technique the sport is known for.
How does only one group have this advantage? Anyone can go out and take up two handed bowling.
You can't say because not everyone has the physical ability to do it, because if lack of physical ability was a good reason to ban those who have the physical ability from doing something. Then we all would be rolling balls down a ramp right now.
