Yeah, a bit pedantic. I meant confederation, which is voluntary (as opposed to federation, which is not). But the idea still stands - why wouldn’t a group want to hook into the distribution system, especially if we make it super-efficient?
I mean yes that would be ideal, and I think it’s possible, it would just take a LOT of discussion and debate to actually get it up and running. Plus the issue of who is running the system itself to make sure we aren’t creating any hierarchies in the process.
I thought most anarchist models were based on confederation rather than federation? Or is that what you meant and I’m being pedantic?

Oh absolutely. But I think we’ve seen lots of open-source projects work in a similar fashion.
For sure
