Well put!

I left it as "network effect". Probably too opaque.

It's like there was a window in the early 00s, when stuff like Tor, Freenet and I2P could recruit enough nodes to be viable. Remailer networks were just too damn hard to use. I mean, they were based on PGP plus mix networks.

But now, people expect stuff to be easy.
