That is correct. As part of the bridge bounty, bridged fediverse accounts were expected to have a NIP-05 identity at the bridge, to aid in controlling the flow of posts since, as we have seen, they can be torrential for users who only want to see a few accounts but not to be drowned in the flood on things like global feeds.

One thing to consider, though is a separate toggle for whether a relay appears in the global feed. The android client nostros does this and I rather like it. A natural extension to this would be to add individuals followed from that relay back into the list. You could easily do the exact same for the domain portion of a NIP-05 identity. More (sensible) toggles is better than shotgun style "mute the living shit out of everything" a la fediverse style blocklists and dns blackholing.

I believe this would facilitate mitigating clutter on such things, and still give users flexibility, rather than being constrained by the client they use
