You are under selling the need for ordered key value store or a filesystem interface.
Without this consistency of an ordered yet e2e encrypted lists, plenty of apps are simply impossible, unless you fake it using a mutable file and embed an sqlite file in there, however this will suck ass to maintain AND Blossom doesnt have mutable files at all.
Think; how do you build every app in Google suite or Proton Drive apps without this ability?
Or think instead; why do we have filesystems and BtreeMaps if we can build apps with random immutable files?
Finally; you can't slap privacy on top ... it is the HARDEST part, someone has to build this once for everyone and servers have to be involved.. think of all the access control and key management and defense in depth where servers don't give encrypted files to random people even if they can't decrypt it, because eventually they might be able to... etc.
My point is, Blossom won't cut it. If you insist on using it because the availability bias... fine, but maybe check Peergos to get an idea on what can be done.
