yes that's what I mean
Publishing is complex, and at least in damus is not apparent which relays an event is published to.
For example, say you have 10 relays. You hit post, and hear back from three with successful post. Two relays reject your post. You have not heard back from the remainder five relays in a short amount of time.
Compare and contrast with posting on single relay X.
See design that reveals the complexity to the user - https://github.com/damus-io/damus/issues/2083#issuecomment-2215338126
I would actually rather that Damus not keep trying failed relays after those few initial seconds, and then when it gives me the X of X report I know that's the end state of things unless I take some action myself. If Damus is going to keep trying then all that "result" is is just a status at a point in time, and that status could be different one second later.
Fun fact, there isn't a lot of gold left in the earth to be mined. We've already mined 70-80% of all of what's there, barring sources like s-type asteroids or new deposits outside of all accepted modelling parameters.
IP is more than patents, it's also trademarks. If I try to imagine a world without trademarks, the picture in my head seems pretty chaotic, poor little me second-guessing every product at the grocery store.
