Agreed. Then there is the problem of a single private key. If that key is compromised, we are no longer in control over our identity. This is particularly problematic for companies that need to share their private key with several people.
If Nostr were to have two private keys, one of them a master key with admin capabilities for the identity, the protocol would need a new architecture.
As a result, whenever a Nostr spin-off architecture solves this problem, every company, corporation and security-minded user will migrate to the protocol with higher security. That's just how things work.

That's a great NIP solution.
The main issue I see is in cases where the root key is already compromised. It also requires a fully secure handling of the root key.
If we implement NIP-26 and then create new root keys from scratch, we could safely move from our old Nostr identities to new ones.
Only if it's 10x better
