Of course, if there's a trusted party a conventional database is better. But that's like saying that umbrellas are useless because it's often sunny outside. Having or not consensus (or a trusted party) is usually not a choice, it's an imposition. Conflicting interests exist and it's difficult to work around them.
I'm not sold on layers, they do nothing to simplify the current mess that CSS is, because they build on top of what's already out there. If CSS was built with the concept of layers, then it could probably be better. In reality, we'll always have specificity rules and IMO adding layers will just add to the complexity.
The specificity rule is not that hard to understand, I'm not sure what's the point of throwing layers in the mix. There are new CSS features I like and I see simplifying written code, but this is definitely not one of them.
Besides what the other comment mentioned, that's also not how most front-end frameworks work. You often need specific classes with your elements to use the default styles.
I know it doesn't address the issue for most people, but that and other things can be "fixed" with the refined GitHub extension.
The worst part IMO is that there used to be a "releases" button somewhere that got nuked. While "projects" is usually there, even though repos rarely use it.
it might be worth watching this PR for memos, which adds encryption at rest. I can't vouch for it, as I didn't read the code but I do use memos and might consider this if it's merged.

and here I thought the surgery was to remove a tooth from the eye
