Sure, but the normal attack on blockchain is that you can do it without that tech - I think DeFi is genuinely useful and I don’t know how you could implement it with the same guarantees without a blockchain

If you can't define the problem without reference to blockchain, then no one can offer a non-blockchain solution. That doesn't mean there isn't a non-blockchain solution to the actual problem, just that you are so wrapped up on a preconceived solution that you can't specify what the problem is separate from the solution you've already chosen.
