I'd much rather have a system that doesn't try to solve human conflict by algorithms. Blockchains do this: you write code, the code becomes the law, and then there is no recourse when things go wrong. I deeply believe that we should rather focus on developping our interpersonnal communication skills and building social structures that empower us to do things together by trusting eachother and taking care together of the group. Algorithms are just tools, and we don't want them interfering in our relationships; in particular in the case of blockchains, the promise of trustlessness is absolutely opposite to this ideal.
