You know how p2p systems can be more effective? By not being p2p systems, and instead being centralized. It's not some kind of natural progression, it's an evolutionary process. Centralization gives you control, reactivity, and all kinds of good things. Decentralization makes you resilient during destructive upheavals that kill centralized competitors. We're gonna end up with a lot of both.
