For step 3-4:
I'm thinking about a site where you can have discussions on each context category. A discussion can be initiated by posting a articles with some personal comments, or just asking a question. So this becomes a reddit clone based on web of trust.

The web of trust calculation can start as simple as taking follows and mutes into count.

Next to the discussion comments there is a BUTTON where you can express your trust in the author's expertise in the category under which it was posted. It creates a new trust event (NIP-77), that is processed the same way as a follow, only difference is that it has much much more score for the exact category it was issued for, somewhat more score for parent categories, and waaaay less score for all other categories.

With this app there is 1 to 1 link between category and trust attestations, so it's probably good way to bootstrap contextual trust.

Problem with this approach is that there is no initial data to start with, so it might be hard to bootstrap the idea.
