I have to disagree. Of course it depends on many factors, but you have to remember that power schedules are created by a separate entity than the utilities and cover a large area. Adding complexity to their job doesn't necessarily increase resilience. Also replacing plants that can provide spinning reserves (frequency stability) and ramping of generation with renewables doesn't necessarily provide resilience. Finally, transmission losses are relatively small compared to other efficiency losses. Rooftop solar is less efficient economically than utility scale, even though rooftop solar is attached to the house using most of the electricity.

Renewables and distributed grids are great for many other reasons, but there are many factors and I disagree with both your efficiency and resilience statements.
