Hmm. I am not sure if I am reading what you wrote or what I wanted to read in to it. This is a strange problem in communication..
Anyway. This is in some sense what I am thinking as well. I am not using nostr as a base, because I have a terrible case of "not invented here"
But I see the future of computing as natively distributed with all the things you'd want built in. End-to-end encryption, replication, filtering, search etc. That ends up looking something like your nostr as an application data store.
An individual application, defined as a set of data types like "email" or "marketplace" simply define data structures, but don't care about authentication, storage, or transport. An application client merely requests permission to some set of data type, read or write, and then just treats it like standard file I/O then either a library, VM, or OS with the tools baked in handles encryption, authentication, and communication with relays.
