This reminds me of the situation with email where if a user has not purchased a domain name, then it is nearly impossible for the user to send or recieve email without a third party "email provider".
Will encryption become the same? If at least one endpoint has not signed up with some third party (e.g., letsencrypt) _and_ purchased a domain name, then it becomes nearly impossible for two endpoints to encrypt traffic between them?
Will we ever again allow users to be fully empowered, _without the involvement of third party endpoints_ (CA's, domain regstrars, etc.), to send email, encrypt traffic, and all the other basic things one can do with a computer and an internet connection? Is it unfathomable that two parties connected to the internet might actually know and/or trust each other already, without involvement of a third party interloper?
Those are meant to be yes or no questions, or perhaps a rhetorical ones. No need to provide rationale. :)
