There should be a few thousand relays (good ones) a least a few in every country in the planet and not hosted in the great cloud

Clients is a bit ambiguous because there will be apps which have different purposes

Nostr band can already give some idea of distribution based on the events published per relay, Damus seems to have a huge influence on this since they use a static list of recommended relays

Ideally each user picks their own relays where they want to write their events and everybody should use Gossip approach to get those events of they are following them

If 1M people follow me then I need to write to a few relays so that those relays can handle that load

And clients should use the relays that are responsive in that set
