The spine to do it left with suits minding the store & managing to the tune of fickle investors. For the same reason just refusing deaggregates has become difficult: the bad guys shield themselves by sitting in the same prefix/ASNs with sites your paying customers wish to reach.

More network companies that are privately held with actual technocrats at the helm might help bring a vision beyond commoditization and marketing.
