 I didn't use the word "dumb". 

I prefer to think they haven't given thought to the practicalities of retrospectively changing data that was broadcast in an open ecosystem that already has bad actors inside the walls.

 I have no emotion about it one way or another. I see logic in all the arguments. I’m just trying to determine for myself if the overall misplaced weirdness in these conversations is driven by ego and immaturity, with a dash of Twitter style toxicity habit, or if there are  some underlying motives.
I think you’re all great. 🤷

 I think so, too. 

I've followed @ava since about the first day I joined Nostr, and her posts are very informative.

But this particular issue attracts too much wishful thinking and not enough information theory.

 If its not retroactive, then network participants have already received it.

What they choose to do with that data is totally beyond your control.

You can ask that they forget your secret. If there's a small enough population that received the plaintext (ideally one, as in a DM), then you have a chance, but no certainty, no matter what we do.

 The point of NIP-09 is to delete already broadcast notes.

If you haven't broadcast a note yet, you don't need NIP-09.

Unless you're using Amethyst. Then your drafts will get you in trouble regardless...
