I don't understand. Billions of non-technical users are loading URLs like `https://cdn.foo/?guid=deadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeef` all the time. Why would they care if those URLs became `ipfs://deadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeef` instead?

The number of normies visiting urls directly from a CDN is a rounding error.

Non technical users like pronounceable domain names. It's why we aren't just using IP addresses.

CAS is intimidating to non-technical types.
