"Without the advanced features" (ie without the reasons to use chks) it is just
a client matter. The applications can go ahead an pretend that CHKs are

Freenet (whoever you are talking about) waited until the next release when the
current changes to the protocol have stabilized and the use of crypto has been
tweaked to perfection.
