I wonder if in trying to define requirements for what is or isn’t
decentralized, that maybe we are missing the most important thing:
decentralized keys. If “proper” DIDs were restricted in some way to only
support those systems where the keys are self-administrative with full
CRUD. In some ways, the rest of the “decentralized” items can be wishlist,
but necessary a requirement.
