Got it, this is usual gossip vs DHT question.

I think you are underestimating how vulnerable to spam this gossip network will be, and how expensive it will be.

There is an inverse relationship between cost of nodes and their decentralisability, and I claim that in a system with no fees for creating new inputs, the only stable configuration is a consortium of small mutually trusting servers, basically like Email.

But of course if that is not convincing, we can always try things in practice.
