This is what I mean when I suggest people who use PGP are LARPing. It's perfectly reasonable to prefer decentralized systems to centralized ones or to think that it's critically important to the future of the Internet that we pursue decentralization. But cryptosystems need to function when lives are on the line; the preference of an system with inferior, flawed cryptography, in pursuit of a philosophical goal about Internet governance, betrays the fact that the security you're after is only a secondary goal.
You see all sorts of different variants of this argument. People cling to PGP because they believe SMTP email needs a future. What does that have to do with protecting the life of a user? Nothing. People cling to PGP because of concerns about open source. Same issue. Not wanting to run things on their phone. Same issue.
