This a misunderstanding about DHTs.
1. You don't need to run a node, you can ask for data in a client mode, just go to Pkarr repo and run the examples, start the process make the query close the process, in and out less than the time to open an average Web page.
2. No one said don't use relays to cache data from many people's queries, no one said don't gossip and cache long term on top... what we are saying is; we need a source of truth that scales and we can fallback to when data is not available in your private cache that you got from your friend on a USB stick.
