 Phrasing it another way.  nost is far bigger than nostR.  But nost itself is basically the web + taproot. 
 thank you for explaining. 

what is Nost?... I haven't heard of that 
 Nost is something I just made up : Notes and other Stuff

It's much bigger than NostR which depends on relays

And adds an important element of taproot and schnorr to the web.  What you could call an nsec too.  This has a much larger total addressable market than the relay part.

I knew fiatjaf for many years before nostr.  I kept saying to him that the data must be transport agnostic.  Either by luck or design, it is in nostr.  That's the path that will let it scale to a far bigger market, though most have not yet realized this.  I think Lyn has.
