The reason that consistent profiles in nostr is important, is that zaps dont work without them. Say you have your profile overwritten, or you are rugged, and have to move your lnprovider (both have happened to me multiple times) then setting up a new provider is not an easy process, if you use multiple apps. I am more technical than most but my zaps have not been working well for over a year, and i rarely even click the zap any more, and zaps that I kindly get I dont always get to see who from. While some devs think that inconsistent profiles are a feature of decentralizaion, not a bug, I say we can and should fix it. One advantage did-nostr could offer would be to have a consistent profile that is up-to-date and discoverable by clients. We'd have to get clients to buy in to it, but clients that offer more consistent profiles could out compete those that dont.
