Feels a bit like a why not? It's an interesting experiment and I think it's likely it could find some powerful use case and also pretty likely it remains a niche experiment.
Question: what are we replacing or new capability are we unlocking?
Maybe removing DNS... though the point of DNS is to make websites easy to find vs IP addresses, and npubs are at least as hard to know/remember as and IP address.
If that's the feature, instead of the bug, it could enable routing around firewalls or even the great firewall as long as there is some way to learn the npubs.
