Blockchains are about decentralisation and removing the need for trust. But neither is necessary in the case of stock settlement. If you accidentally have the DTC send someone a bunch of your shares, you politely ask that person for them back and you’ll likely get them. Try doing that with a blockchain (especially if you accidentally send them to a nonexistent address)
