That’s a fair point — performance-wise, traditional backbones are incredibly hard to beat.

But maybe the value of Yggdrasil isn’t in outrunning the backbone — it’s in outlasting it. In unstable or disconnected environments, resilience, autonomy, and zero-setup connectivity might matter more than raw speed.

So perhaps it's not about replacement, but complement — building networks that keep working when the backbone doesn't.
