@dinofelis, I don't want to get into another debate with you right now, but I intend to prove with a real project that you are conflating a BDFL with decentralization of the four classes of actors. You are stuck on this theme that decentralization is only useful for dark markets and I intend to prove that the mainstream of society needs decentralization. The Internet is decentralization. I posit that Google and Facebook are about to be disrupted. Expending too much time and effort on words isn't as useful as working to make a real experiment. Btw, I do agree the ideal is that influence/power of the BDFL should wane and the paradigm should run decentralized autonomously and I think this may be possible. But all the scaling issues have to be worked out. Satoshi added the 1MB limit after he had already released Bitcoin. He hadn't worked out of all the scaling issues. His work was incomplete.
