It's more that kademlia has built-in replication via the K factor where chord 
doesn't have a standard replica design. Lastly you can debug/profile kademlia 
with only math where chord requires an implementation. IMO chord is simpler, 
can be done in a few days where kademlia takes longer to implement.
