Not everyone needs to run a node, but there needs to be a large number of distributed nodes that are difficult to confiscate and shut down (i.e. not on AWS).
If the number of nodes is significantly reduced, it becomes possible to completely destroy Bitcoin by confiscating the few remaining ones from die hard users.
