Editing Design (section)

== 3.3 Limitations and Exclusions ==

Technical Limitations:
* Performance overhead from privacy-preserving features
* Dependency on underlying internet infrastructure
* Resource requirements for full node operation
* Network effects needed for system resilience
* Latency from anonymity and encryption

Integration Limitations:
* No direct integration with legacy systems
* Limited interoperability with centralized services
* Trade-offs between privacy and performance
* Complexity of system design

Social Limitations:
* Learning curve for users and developers
* Need for community adoption and participation
* Challenge of building parallel institutions
* Coordination overhead in decentralized governance

Exclusions:
* Traditional centralized services and APIs, except through modules
* Real-time applications requiring low latency
* Services requiring trusted third parties, except through modules
* Applications incompatible with privacy requirements
* Features that compromise sovereign autonomy
