I'm not sure I agree with this view.
If the NIH or DoD, etc serves data over FTP, they can certainly also serve it via IPFS. It would be much better for them to do so. Then, if anyone pulls that data (even if it's only a small dataset, say 2 TB, to their house or lab) it is now more available (since now NIH and other labs are sharing it). I would imagine that the data centers serving these files would be happy to reduce the bandwidth they have to serve by allow other labs to help out as well.
It only adds. I don't understand how it subtracts.
