I think these are mostly all valid points, but
1. Twitter isnt going to release half baked alpha software that let's you potentially zap your money into the abyss. I think Elon wants to make twitter into a super app, meaning having a payment service built in; we should make sure nostr dominates this field.
2. Paid verification is their way of controlling bots, if you only scroll twitter then you don't need an account at all, if you want to be treated like a real person with important ideas then you'll have to pay the toll, just like subbing to a paid relay. On both platforms, content creators are being charged, users don't really have an incentive to pay.
3. The UX provided by the central provider, twitter, is already better than any nostr relay; there's no shopping around or ditching one for the other, because there doesn't need to be.
