I think the point is that i2p's decision to use a decentralised directory service led to the vulnerabilities described in the paper. You can't separate principles from their practical effects. I agree with you that i2p's principles are great, but that shouldn't stop us from discussing their practical effects (including the bad ones). I don't like the idea that respect == not talking about problems. How are problems with i2p and Tor supposed to get fixed if we don't discuss them? As for personal choice - yes, it's a matter of personal choice whether you prefer i2p's goals or Tor's goals. But whether those systems achieve their goals is not a matter of personal choice - it's a matter of objective fact that should be settled by examining the evidence.
