I'm not sure I'm tracking.
IIRC you are arguing that because the signer has the final say on the note that it acts essentially is the "client" ? NVault has no communication with nostr at all. It has a private API that the browser extension talks to it with. The web client interacts with it.
Many apps store your "preferences" in signed notes or encrypted dms. What would be the difference here?
Are you suggesting that, for example, NVault would sign the message and broadcast it to relays on your behalf? Skip the round-trip back to the client?
