The opt-in part is what makes all the difference, and it's why the accusations of utopianism fall flat. We should have more experimentation of alternative systems of governance. Creating experimental, small scale and opt-in societies to do that is a low risk way to achieve that. Then the process of selection takes over: the most desirable model becomes dominant as more people move there voluntarily. In the end we will have more competition between states, especially as remote work becomes the norm. This is very different to an attempt to radically transform an existing society, which requires hoisting things onto a large number of unwilling people who haven't opted in, and risks destroying something that's already working pretty well. We shouldn't confuse the two.
