You do realize that tags are being used extensively in other kinds, right? And that instead of having all these crazy different kinds, it would be more useful and way simpler to just have a bunch of tags on notes. I think that is my one basic critique of the nostr protocol.

mine also, leave out the kinds, tags can be descriptive
kinds are all over the place, sometimes one kind means 5 different actual messages, sometimes 4 kinds are actually 4 different messages. there's just no need for them when they could have meaningful tags
also, the whole thing of single letter keys being indexed is stupid. considering a tag key is typically going to be a word no more than 12 characters long, you can jush hash it and take 4 bytes and done. index them all
