That said, Nip 17 does do some things that NIP-EE seems not able or not ready to do. This from NIP-EE:
"It is not possible to share group state across multiple Clients. If a user joins a group from 2 separate devices, their state is separate and they will be tracked as 2 separate members of the group."
That's pretty huge, since we all live cross-device these days. It's not a limitation of MLS, but it could be a limitation forced by how MLS integrates with Nostr in this particular way, I'm not sure. Either way, on NIP 17 as a single npub you can operate cross-device (say Macbook and iPhone) with relative ease.

Actually maybe that's referring to a cryptographic state that can be abstracted away by clients, need to test!
Scratch that, I read it wrong!
Correct!
This is one big feature of the MLS design, it's built for multi device users and large groups.
