The healthier attitude to trust issues in crypto (and society at large too), is to find mechanisms (cryptographic, game theory, economic, legal) to manage and constrain the trust assumptions that are made. You can't eliminate trust, and you probably shouldn't try. But you should figure out ways to put good seatbelts and airbags on that trust so that when you do use trust as a social lubricant (it is very good at that), the damage from when it goes wrong is constrained.
