I'm not a developer on NIP-17. You should consider working with them to resolve your issues, making it more robust for everyone to use. I've already said I wished for you to work with them instead of deciding to make your application not compatible with other applications, throwing interoperability out. It's an open protocol, meaning anyone can build, but if we don't adhere to standards, then the protocol doesn't work if everyone starts to do that, right?

What's up with the drama? This should be a technical discussion, not an "omg I'm losing faith they didn't use my key" one.
