No. You never addressed the question posed which was why would you choose a centralized approach in a decentralized environment? You had the choice. You centralized the tools. The tools are filters and snitches in part so we now have a censorship setup.
Address the issue. Don't pontificate. Don't give an arrogant aside.
Why this approach? You had the choice so just explain why distributed tools in a distributed environment was eschewed?
That is the crux. The rest is fluff and misdirection.
You are making this worse
