I disagree with your statement on the premise that client devs "should" be Zapped, it gives similar premises/implications that statists use to justify taxation (for roads, etc.).
If clients are valued people will voluntarily zap them if they work on the foss model.
Clients that operate on a business model need to offer good services that make people want to use their client.
I zap my nostr friends, and I also zap Nostr Devs, and If I had money I would also buy Nostr Services that I need, or want.
V4V, It's the infrastructure vs. content battle.
What's the point of infrastructure if there's no good original content, what's the point of good original content if the infrastructure sucks?
Nostr will either adapt, or die, simple as.
