correct. clients and relays are interchangable. so me banning someone doesn't mean much.

two. i think gossip is for improving decentralization. but 'tree of relays' is another good design imo in that regard. and if an executable (node) is put on github that people can download and run, it is going to be much more decentralized. i could do that but i am focusing on llms.

in my design lower layers are aggregator, bridge, switch, (even nws) type of fast and not judging relays, possibly in datacenters with nice hardware. higher layers are regular people at home, that judge the content (if they want), serving a fraction of the network.
