How are markets centralized, exactly? If centralization and hierarchies were the answer to all complexity, then the feudal system would still be relevant.

Markets are complex, organic things, with a lot of players.

Really? funny to think we are anything but feudal. Markets may have large number of players but the number of players which matter are much less.

I'm not even sure what you mean by that, but if you think we have anything remotely resembling a feudal economy, I invite you to do more research into history.
