i already did: the people stewarding clients don't care about it

you basically said "it's not going to work because not everybody will implement it at the same time". but that's how every feature was built on nostr.

This is different. All apps have the same profile picture. We can't have some apps with some profiles and other apps with other ones. You fuck with identity, you destroy the only thing that works all the time on Nostr. If people start questioning if the npub I am talking to is still the same npub I was talking to yesterday, we will have major problems. Nostr somewhat works because the identity is immutable. Once that mutates, a whole slew of issues arise. And we don't have the consensus layer to follow just one path, together. If identity breaks like DMs are broken, nostr dies.
