How do you reliably verify anyone? You’d have to know them and do it in person, or via some other already verified channel.

I don't know. I'm just saying it's not verification without a verification process. As it is, it's just a user-friendly substitute for an npub.
Ya it’s useful to share like on a podcast
I need to see your driver's license, social security number, and 3 pieces of mail sir.
🤣
That's a very narrow view of what verification means. Nostr already has a process to verify your Mastodon github, and Twitter accounts. The process of linking your nostr profile to your external accounts is a form of identity verification that could conceivably be used to verify identity for a NIP-05 address.
Real life of trust 😁
