Yeah who doesn't want a ledger you cannot change, sounds like a good idea. /s

In the case of deeds, i think it is desirable because it gives you an immutable history of ownership.

There are other problems but i don't believe that is one.

No it doesn't. It only works because 51% doesn't change the ledger.

You already have this with a simple database for ownership. It already exists, and ledgers made out of paper predates that.
