Why are people so opposed to this nowadays?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westphalian_sovereignty#Modern_views_on_the_Westphalian_system

The best way to mitigate the interests of those seeking to gain power at the expense of others is to accept that those interests exist and create clear limits that can be reinforced if necessary.

Do critics of the Westphalian system secretly wish to reduce people's consciousness of some new order they are trying to create and impose on the population?

Do they need to be killed to make the world a better place?

Tallyrand, Bismarck, and Metternich honestly the 1800's was the best time for diplomats.
