Good UX respects the user's time. It has nothing to do with intelligence. Not everyone lives for the technical aspects of Nostr. A surgeon, for example, may just want to hop on and provide value relevant to his expertise without spending hours figuring out how all this shit works.

Nostr is not for surgeons, it's for enthusiasts (currently). Good UX has to give enthusiasts room to play and discover new tricks.

Then these tricks can be made into shortcuts for the surgeons.

I think that both should exist (the beauty of client choice). Obviously it takes time to develop good UX. My point was more against the idea that good UX is for dumb people, which seemed to be implied with the worm comment (unless I misunderstood). I don't think the Nostr enthusiasts should ever be ran off. I just think both types are important for the growth and health of Nostr over time. And in fairness, a lot of the enthusiasts are already selling it to the non-enthusiasts as if it is for them right now. And they often come here and leave. But that's a different topic no one can control.
