About public blockchains and the blockchain trilemma:
Different public blockchains use different consensus mechanisms and make different design trade-offs, so their block times, confirmation speeds, and transaction fees also vary.
The more validator nodes there are, the more messages need to be exchanged to reach consensus, making it harder to improve performance. This is the source of the trade-offs among the three.
