Negentropy (drafted as NIP-77) is a way for relays to more efficiently sync notes between each other by determining what each relay has prior, and then only sending the missing notes.
So if you move relays, all your notes will follow that change. For example, if you decide a year from now you want to run your own relay, you can use it to sync all your notes from other relays to it.
It could also be useful to create topic based relays that sync with thousands, hundreds of thousands to millions of relays. It could then use an LLM to filter notes based on a topic.
It's robustness and efficiency.
