In an open, account-less protocol, it is costless to create bots and spam. Relays *must* coordinate or else the whole system can be overrun (it probably can be anyway).
The important thing to prevent censorship is not that there isn't coordination, it's that anyone *can* run a node and ensure notes are published.
