Aren't the npubs needed for the NIP-17 Giftwrap encryption that bitchat can use for its nostr fallback internet communication?

You can choose to "login with Nostr", at which point you're going to be pretty aware you're using Nostr. You'll need a signer extension, or you need to paste in an Nsec, and to do other things you can't do without knowing something about what you're doing.

Same as if you login with Google, you can't really do that without being aware you're logging in with Google.
