Maybe email is a good comparison?
Currently, GMail predominates--but there are other popular, and (frankly) very good alternatives.
I may be wrong, but I don't see GMail ever becoming the "only supplier"...
(There will always be a better mousetrap)
So it is with Nostr---there may be some "top" clients (eventually) but innovation will preclude there being only one (Highlander notwithstanding).
