Do some people have specific ideas or visions of what this could turn out to be? I've tried to play this out in my head but wasn't able to arrive at any new paradigms but then again I've only scratched the surface of plan 9 grid

I've done some experimental setups using hypercubic routing and algorithms inspired by 80s supercomputer designs from the nCUBE corporation, and the 'spawngrid' is a lighter-weight plan 9 take on containerized service architecture, so I'd say the answer is yes.
