People complain that "not everybody will run a relay", well, why is that? Because the architecture of the network and the UX of the software doesn't automatically do it for them. Why is running a relay not automatic when running a client? It could be. Every client could be a relay.

Yes, but what does it mean to have a relay? If you mean a full relay, where users can connect to you, great, but I imagine it would have to be through Tor. Also, keep in mind the size, hundreds of thousands of daily events take up a lot of space. However, if you mean a personal relay, where you are only connected to your relay and it bridges the rest of the relays, wouldn't the result be the same?
