IMO the framework of solving  "transaction costs" vs "commons-based peer production" is a very useful.

Most work being done now with DAOs focuses on CBPP, but many common use cases of crypto are really just reduced transaction costs, like stable coins on L2s

It gives a useful framework for why entirely new forms of governance and social organization like DAOs should exist, while also considering more ordinary and established use cases like reducing transaction costs in developing countries
