I think we did ask the military how they'd handle domain names on the internet, and they came up with DNS.

(Also, if you're going to let the military overrule decisions in your distributed permissionless blockchain, is there a point in having a distributed permissionless blockchain in the first place?)

Human intervention is important to the proper functioning of blockchain protocols. It's a myth that blockchains can just operate in a completely objective way without people. The point is to minimize the amount that people need to interject, so that people can instead focus on a higher abstraction

Not internet related protocols. Human related protocols.
