Clients could also load older pictures if the relay is sending this data. But in NIP-1 (kind: 0) there is defined:

A relay may delete older events once it gets a new one for the same pubkey.

But it is possible.

Can we call it the sad Nip or "gone with the NIP" ?

Well I think a lot of relays also sending older kind: 0 events. So it's up to the clients how to show it. I think this would be quite easy to implement

I think " why would you want to change the trivial fun things that people are already used to from the legacy social media?"

Maybe I will add this feature to beta.nostrid.online soon

When I get some free time for it :)
