oh i agree about that entirely! 1000%. and it is a beautiful thing. i want to be certain it stays that way - in a "verify, don't trust" sort of way. and i can't verify what that caching server does or be certain (without trusting) what it will do in the future. this "problem" just 100% goes away if there is a setting to connect directly to relays. you and miljan both said that's planned; and i look forward to it, and to having nothing left to be skeptical about.

if there was real censorship on the default primal caching server it would be obvious and most users would either change caching servers or copy/paste their nsec into a different app

it would not be obvious unless they had access to nostr notes directly from relays (on another client, as you say). their Primal-only world would not have that information, so they wouldn't know they were missing it. as i said at the outset, they'd be trusting, not verfying. but their ability to verify is restored with a little toggle that says "bypass caching server". EZ, if you want it.
