"Not a ringing endorsement for central banking, amirite?"

Which type of spherical cow free-market economy should i compare it too? No matter what system i pick, from medieval gold based systems to modern floating currency, someone goes "ThaTs NoT Real Free MaRKet!" It's like communism, not real life system was ever the real deal.

The US system of free banking before 1914.

You can't, it is a religion.
I really think it is, amits ironic because they are ideologically oppose communists but act in the same way. Horseshoe effect in real life!
