All of this talk strikes me as coming from people that have implemented neither large web applications nor distributed or p2p applications at all dreaming up schemes with no idea of how they would actually work.

I think an illustrative example is how Twitter spends significant engineering effort (with Cassandra and now Rainbird) just to implement a counter in a scalable fashion.
