Yes, i agree with you if they can take measures to consider using those into account before marking as the 'trusted' users candidate. But, they (nip05, lightning address) also makes another problem especially for genuine and common users who just starting a Nostr barely know anything.
I don't know fully (since haven't read yet directly from source code) how but probably only consider simple "follows of follows" as the basjc parameters and separate them by following distance. AFAIK, in filter.nostr.wine it use one degree of separation as WoT. In Iris, it uses multiple degree of separation until 4 layers. Different clients or relay(s) may have different implementations. Hopefully maybe Mazin, Martti can give us some better insight. Coracle and Nostur also have WoT. I haven't look the code yet. TLDR: Basic implementations of WoT is using "follows of follows" with certain degree of separation.
