Agree. With it's not just AUTH as defined in NIP-42. It's AUTH + a p-tag filter based on the logged in user. Virtually no relay does this.
But even if it does. The relay itself SHOULD NOT be able to track anyone else but the user that connected.

yeah, this is an essential feature, and nobody is prioritising it as they should be
it's like putting a big fancy padlock on a shitty wood and cardboard gate, to add all this obfuscation to the messages when you could just have auth and not send out messages that don't relate to an authed user pubkey
really, you can't solve that problem any other way
the relay is acting as an untrustworthy intermediary when it doesn't have controls to prevent strangers reading your private messages
