Immutable payments has trade-offs.
Having dispute moderating intermediaries is probably inevitable in many ways, it is a valuable service and does deserve a financial reward.
If your uber driver drops you off in the middle of nowhere or your airbnb guest trashes your place, these disputes have to be moderated somehow.
I think at some point there will be bitcoin payment escrows to facilitate commerce and we will likely pay for that service.
