It's difficult to understand the exponential nature of the network effect without a visual aide, since humans don't intuitively understand exponential functions.



There's too much potential value to be realized by a universal monetary ledger to imagine that some kind of fragmented solution will successfully compete.

Competing blockchains are not "fragmented."  They are linked through exchanges, and soon by SuperNet/Blocknet type interconnections.
