Locked implies it could eventually be unlocked. Sounds less final.

Can't really lock and then unlock an npub because the nsec can't change, as far as I know.

A lot of events are signed with the key, and very hard to delete all, to keep but locked will allow history/backup, before retire.

Are you defining

"locked" as "frozen, but don't delete anything, yet"

versus

"retired" as "already locked and events now ready for deletion"?

Or are you using locked as a different word for the second thing?

I think 2 stages can be useful. Retired imply deletion, and more difficult to implement by all relays. Or, maybe, locked is like blocked.
