#1 So instead of a formal planner and his executioners, what they are is drinking buddies and a couple of ideas drawn on bar napkins?

#2 if it becomes decentralized and diffuse, then they CANT plan grand strategy, focus resources where they can do the most damage, etc. They just do there own thing wherever they are, wherever their impulses move them to go. Its like replacing a fight against Gambino family, with a fight against muggers. The muggers will always be an annoyance, and will always soak up resources, but wont threaten to take over society (well not that the mafia really threatened that, but you get the idea)
