Hmm. I always thought the basic idea of Nostr is that events are not tied to domain names or URLs or anything of the sort. Off the top of my head, I see 3 issues with this special-relay approach:
1. It diminishes censorship resistance
2. Seeing publications tagged (and linked) in articles before having subscribed to a special relay is good for discovery. I would definitely want people to be able to subscribe to all my articles by just subscribing to the pubkey itself.
3. It adds a burden on publishers to run special infrastructure
