 DNS is poison for censorship-resistant decentralised protocols. Every time a relay admin chooses to drop messages from non-NIP-05 verified users, an Amazon Pink Dolphin dies. It makes me unbelievably sad.

 Agree.

NIP-05 doesn't verify a npub.
NIP-05 just adds a DNS alias to a npub.

Very, very different.
The identity is in the npub, not in the DNS name.
