 nah, I‘m not that important. Nostr would be fine without me. 
 Now that I re-read my post, I can see how it could be interpreted as saying "nostr needs you" "nostr fails without you" (and of course not you in particular, ha ha).  But that wasn't even what I meant....  what I meant is that nostr has no single point of failure...but you have a single point of failure if you screw up managing your key.  This was meant in contrast to "nostr is censorship resistant" which isn't quite as on the money as "nostr doesn't have a single point of failuire".  Anyhow, I don't think people are reading it that way and I wanted to put down somewhere what I was actually thinking.
