It’s impressive how quickly the WWW became mainstream, given how few people had internet access back then. Bitcoin is now 16 years old but compared to the WWW in 2008 is hardly used on a daily basis.

It's not that WWW was quick, it's that Bitcoin is useless.
False, it was much more annoying to buy drugs online pre-crypto.
How did people do that before crypto?

For agent to agent payments, Bitcoin/Ethereum could be quite useful now, as traditional payment protocols and banks are not likely to provide decent APIs any time soon.
