not to mention in many private relay scenarios, its not like some centralized wot service would even have access to the notes needed to calculate web of trust. Many of them might be things like private zaps or interactions on non public relays.

How does the data required grow as the network grows? If Nostr is the size of Bluesky, how much would my phone need to download?
you don’t need to calculate the entire network, only the people you interact with
Yes but the pagerank of the people I interact with is most useful when I consider the opinions of people I don't interact with.
If I am following a feed in a topic that isn't popular in my following their rank will be low.
Still, happy to watch this experiment unfold.
