No, of course not. My main problem with CJDNS is that is *not*
a secure darknet because it is not anonymous, in contrast with I2P.

I2P is an anonymous mixnet with networking layer *on top*. It
vastly differs from CJDNS.

In fact, you can't compare CJDNS to I2P. I2P builts unidirectional
tunnels of n lenght that lasts 10 mins or so, and you need to build
a tunnel for both receiving and sending data, that are always changing.
You get a totally different return path for the same connection, ie: IRC,
web, XMPP... I2P provides *anonymity*.

CJDNS offers you a static path for your packets, since tunnels crosses
for the same machines.

The main idea of Netsukuku is that the network grows itselfs, free
of censorship, control, and single-point of failure. So, yes, I think
it's a bad idea if we want Netsukuku to grow in features and in
research.

I am not against CJDNS nor the people that runs in Hyperboria (an
invite-only network iirc? ;) ) but in terms of features, related work
and anonymity and censorship resistant mindset, I rather look at
I2P.

For example, taking real content authentication for the network:
