Yes, anyone CAN spin up their own relay, but do we really want to make that our freedom of speech proposition?
"Hey folks, Nostr is great--but you have to spin up your own relay to make it work if you don't want to be censored"
One of our greatest (current) problems is easy of use...I'd say going down the "spin up your own relay" isn't really our best answer...

Don't conflate "CAN spin up their own relay" with "HAVE TO spin up your own relay". Again, only "if all relays" censored you would you be required to spin up your own. That means it would only take one like-minded individual as yourself to spin up their own censorship-free relay so that you (and all other like-minded individuals) wouldn't have to. At worst, this would-be issue presents opportunity (either to you or to anyone else) to cater to you and like-minded individuals.
