The problem with NIP-29 is that we're setting up users to get themselves into trouble.
Yes, most group don't need proper encrypted comms. But, for the ones that do, they REALLY do.
This sort of UX makes a user think that the group they're creating is actually private and actually secure, which it's not. Relays still have FULL visibility into what's going on in groups.
