A generalization, but it sounds like you're trying to fix Federation, by making things defederated, to make things more centralized.
Federation has good points, and bad points. I don't mean to discourage you from your conversation, but I think you need to consider the meta of what Federation is.
Having said all that, I recently participated in a conversation about EA putting ads in their games, and there was three different posts in three different communities, on the same subject.
I literally had to add links in my comment, that I was duplicating, to the other two duplicated comments of mine, so they were all cross referenced. It was definitely a pain in the butt to do so.
