 "In general we have a nostr problem with replacable list events and how easy it is for apps to override and wipe out lists."

 Wish I spoke dev. 
 Yep. Lists are terrible. They are only appealing when the are small. And small lists are quite useless.  
 Yeah, we need a better way of handling them. Because I would also like to be able to tell a relay, give me all events from pub’s in this list. But the way we do lists right now isn’t scalable. 
 Best option right now is an unbounded list. Basically a bunch of separate events that together make the list.
