Doesn't this "fundamental strength" also doom it to be abysmally slow?
Quick proof: If there were a network like Freenet (meaning, nodes can't control what content they host) that wasn't abysmally slow, companies that currently pay to host stuff (e.g. mobile app banner ads) would move their files on to it until it was abysmally slow again.
