You're going to use escrow for all of your transactions? There is no way the general public is going to do that. I think even those who are more paranoid would give up the attempt after using escrow to do transactions after a few months and just use regular money. Or more likely, just stop using escrow and use bitcoins anyway, and then complain when they get stolen.

You're using escrow already when you use a bank account, CC processor, paypal, google wallet etc.

You don't really get a choice, and you carry the mandatory cost because merchants roll the cost of chargeback fraud, CC fees and banking fees over into your purchase price, no matter if you think you'll need the added service or not.
