We need to follow Einstein’s Dictum: we should purse the simplest solution to the problem, nothing simpler.

I think Decentralized Lists offers a method to start out with the simplest workable solution, but then to layer complexity on top of it. The idea is that we achieve consensus one tiny bite at a time, building up gradually to a sophisticated solution, rather than try to generate consensus over a cathedral all at once. When a proposed solution tries to do too much all at once, it’s the complexity that prevents consensus from being achieved, the result being that nothing happens.
