So? Trustlessness is, no doubt, a "hard" problem solved by crypto. But, just because something is theoretically trivial doesn't mean that it is in practice. Could you architect a "distributed database with more ceremony?" Sure. Will they? Maybe not. I realize this is offensive to fans of bitcoin/crypto's technical achievement and monetary ideals, but that doesn't mean it's not operative. You don't need a PC to run a word processor. That said, if you wanted to build a dedicated word processor, you would probably use or modify a pre existing PC architecture.
