It doesn't, that's a fact. However it does explicitly state that Bitcoin is peer to peer electronic cash. Therefore for Bitcoin to truly be peer to peer without a 3rd party, you must retain the ability to run a node. By not running a node, you are relying on someone else to broadcast and verify your transactions. What happens when that node says f you, I'm not doing that?
