I think that's undue friction and overhead at a per message level, whereas economically sound relays would be part of the social graph and whitelisted for forwarding messages.

Paid relays > paid messages

Same principle though, free doesn't work

I could receive free messages over public free relays.

But important ones could be over private nostr relays, maintained by myself or my trusted peers with which I maintain a certain volume of private messages.

Private relays could be configured also to be free for trusted peers. For others could be configured to be pay-to-send-msg.

Paying to send a message could be a subset of relay whitelisting into a social graph in that context... tiering like this would actually be consistent with QoS principles already used on the internet

my relay already by default (actually, i don't plan on changing this) doesn't allow reading of messages of a sensitive nature without being party to the conversation
