This doesn’t kill that. This enables relays to AUTH only for read, if that makes sense to their use case. But I think specialized relays are not necessarily going to look like the ones we have today, they’re going to be more sophisticated, and the behavior can and should look different for them. Ultimately, there are legitimate use cases to auth on connect or auth only for REQs, and the relay implementers are able to make that decision based on the relays goals.

Yeah let’s be clear that the spec allows exactly that. We are choosing to put it on connect for filter because we need it there for our advanced functionality. Other relays can implement NIP-42 how they choose.
