Failure?

"Failure" is a subjective judgement in most cases. Try "I haven't failed, I just haven't succeeded yet." --L. Reichard White, 1978

Just for kids - - -

Obedience is for kids -- and only for kids. 


OK, maybe not even for kids.

Anachronism?

If useful at all, hierarchies are designed for emergency circumstances where the situation is clear, usually dire, requires special knowledge and/or information held by one or only a few and a quick co-ordinated response.  And a bad outcome otherwise.  Since this requires accurate anticipation of the future at all stages -- which decays the further ahead you look -- clearly hierarchies have very limited usefulness which spoils rapidly.  Thus, as Sufi traditions suggest, they should never be created as permanent -- and should be encouraged to decay rapidly.  --L.
