I believe this fits squarely into the “Other Stuff” part of NOSTR.

I don't see why it should be a problem that there are NIPs for things we won't use ourselves, or that people might shoot themselves in the foot with. Self-sovereignty is tough. There are benefits and drawbacks. We are OK with someone having their life savings on a piece of paper shoved in the drawer, but not with somebody backing up and sharing their own medical data?

Yeah, maybe they screw it up and it causes a huge problem in their lives (in either case). But the option is still there because it's all part of what it means to have the choice of self sovereignty.

In any case, the NIP itself should be judged on whether it meets the standards required for a NIP, not on whether or not we think it's a good idea.
