They would claim the same things of their stack, with some reasonable validity. I was doing single sign-on with PKI on the ActivityPub stack in 2007 (which extends to the whole semantic web, solid, DIDs, FOAF etc.). Each system has trade-offs. But I agree nostr has a special combination, particularly, payments.
Ultimately turing complete is turing complete. All the stacks will end up as turing complete. Identity is not sigular it's a key ring of relations. Some are further ahead on this than others. Some have politics and so on.
Like you, I'm very bullish on nostr use cases, as a form of advanced innovation. However, other stacks have gone 10x in user base, which unlocks other things such as sustainability etc. though perhaps with added politics.
