I have carefully checked trac and torproject.org website for proposals,
seen many interesting ones but not a single one to decentralize the Tor
network from the direcotry authorities. There are many ways to accomplish
this apparently, and it's the only way to guarantee full independence and

You haven't specified the decentralization mechanism. So I guess I get to pick?
Okay. Instead of believing the directory authority signatures, instead

Maybe the centralization issue should revolve around things other
than such two sided math proofs should neither side win...
1) There's expectation that some TPO-like entity will blackball

That's what can be deducted from some papers but this is really a
shortcut, like "the bittorrent network is less secure with the DHT than
with trackers", funny state
Sybil,
You make me so sad :( You're why we can't have nice things.
Being able to 'replay' messages from a recently deceased directory nodes
opens up new venues for attack.
Directory servers as single points of failure, you might extrapolate that
