Nostr addresses censorship by relays themselves. But if all involved organizations wanted it, and it's a closed market, they could censor all DNS names and IP addresses used by Nostr relays.
Obviously this is hard and unlikely, which is why Nostr does provide (some level of) censorship resistance.

From my understanding it's corporate censorship and it mostly does solve that.

I agree. I never suggested allowing edits is against the purpose of Nostr.
