Artificial scarcity is artificial.

Nothing prevents someone from making copies and selling each "unique" one.

Since it is decentralized, there is no centralized authority to take down the copies (that is, a DMCA-style take down).

The "no one can censor you" upsides of decentralization are not without downsides: you cannot censor or take down others, even in cases of copyright breach.
