You have good takes. I fully agree.
This could be possible if all relays you use are running in trusted execution environments in the cloud. That means a reliance on AWS or GCP and higher costs for the relay. In return, users of the relay can be confident that the relay is doing what it says it is doing, and not doing what it says it is not doing (the degree of confidence depending on the setup, higher-confidence setup = higher cost).
Such a relay might also verify a note's signature but obscure the signature from clients, thereby making it impossible for clients to broadcast the note with the signature intact. (The code for this would of course have to be attestable to put clients at ease.) If all that were possible and done, and if you only wrote to such relays, then you could be sure that you could delete your notes with traces of them limited to screenshots and whatnot.
That's all very against the ethos of "as simple and cheap as possible" though.
