Finding myself implementing postel’s law in damus even when it feels wrong: “be conservative in what you do, be liberal in what you accept from others”

When damus sees @npub it will parse it now, even though its not spec’d. It leads to a less confusing behaviour for users. There is some ancient wisdom in internet protocols that I didn’t appreciate fully until now.

If I'm understanding this correctly, is this to be able to search for people based on what name they've put in their profile without the need for a NIP-05 address?
