Agreed.
What about this case: each nostr client app you use also wants to use a specific relay.
So you end up adding one by one and 3-5 limit is passed easily.
And this list is broadcast to your public profile.
I think the relays should be set only in a client settings not nostr wide.
For example, if I want to use White Noise only with 2 relays, that option should be reflected only in WN. But if I want to use NMail, I want to use only 2 specific relays for emails. If I want to post some memes on a regular public relay, from a regular nostr client, I should be using only 1-2 public relays, not all those from specific apps.
