I just watched this video to hear the guy's thesis:

He did excellent research, but his proposed solution is a public central bank. This isn't the first time I've heard that idea, but the desire to press the print button will be just as powerful in "public" (ie government) hands as in private hands. Many of the concerns he expressed in the video are solved by self custody Bitcoin, but not all (as you addressed above with the 6102).
The book was published last year. From my perspective a lot has changed since then I'm regards to Bitcoin. It's still not impossible to have a 6102, but it's gotten dramatically harder. I like what he said about the people prepetuating the system not actually realizing the full implications. I said the same thing in my lecture series.
