Dat works great in the sneakernet flashdrive scenario as you can P2P sync over offline WiFi and dat clients like beaker browser will automatically verify cryto signatures. It makes distributing a verified offline and online P2P web very accessible for non technical folks. It's like SSL for the offline web.
I think that things like p2p transport via Tor, bt, etc. are all red herrings. The robust computing infrastructure for the next-gen, distributed information system that the world needs, should not be tied to transport layer concerns like that. It should work reasonably well via flash-drive-sneakernet as it does over fiber and LTE.
