which 3 or 4 relays should I query to know what are your preferred servers? how can I possibly know which relays did you post your list on?

wouldn't that by default force us all to post and read from the same 3/4 relays to have reliable resolution? wouldn't that make them target? and what happen when they censor you or go offline? where do I go to find you now?

if you try to solve this, you will end up reinventing DHTs, but you have ZERO chance of making a DHT even 1% of the size of Mainline.

So your options are:

1. use Mainline DHT

2. make a worse more vulnerable version of Mainline DHT and use that instead.

The NIP-65 records, which is the Nostr's DNS in a way, should be in all relays. Clients should spread that record far and wide.

There are indexing relays like purplepag.es that you can use all fallback, but usually there is no need to.
