Then I might be wrong about this.
I think the compatibility would help in a hard-core censorship scenario. If all bootstrap relays like purplepag.es or damus are methodically censored on the dns level, there is no starting point to discover users relay lists.
In this case some trustworthy pubkeys could just run a homeserver relay and the pubky protocol essentially allows to access those in such a scenario.
Also, anyone could run their own personal relays in a censorship-resistant way. Say you are Alex Jones or on some high-level blacklist, you would run your stuff on pubky, so you have a censorship-resistant pointer to your relays.
