I'm aware of this. However, if we are in independent groups, with no
connection, how do I trust your group? How do know that everyone in
your group is real? With X.509, my group and yours could be traceable
to the root authorities. Think of DNS. What if there were separate
groups of root servers that didn't communicate. How would that work out
for the Internet?
