The Batman protocol doesn't scale well.

Meshnet doesn't have the incentive (the actual only thing we're contributing to mesh networking)

If we could apply our payment strategy to any of the existing protocols we would have done it. Also, the fact that we have incentive means we could add special nodes; which means we can solve some of the issues that other protocols suffer from more easily. Instead of relying on distributed hash tables for example (a layer of complexity), why not dedicate a special node for lookup queries (PLN). That and we don't mind adopting a completely different approach for the routing protocol. This is why we're asking for the help of the community.
