The agreement of sale itself is such a very small part of the potential sources of disputes (not even disputes, necessarily, sometimes just glitches) between buyer and seller, though. I'd rather have a single system that can handle all the potential problems, as well as most redress in the event that something goes wrong.
Since the usual redress when something goes wrong on either the buyer's or the seller's end, in my experience, consists of nullifying the agreement of sale, it seems to me like blockchain's solution consists of grossly misinterpreting the needs and motives of both parties (By starting from an assumption of zero trust, which is just silly, why on earth would I buy from a retailer in whom I have zero trust?) and then hyper-optimizing for that misinterpretation. It's classic solution-in-search-of-problem behavior.
