You are wrong, but hey, try it and see if you can build an encrypted filesystem on Blossom without changing Blossom and without asking clients to do prohibitively complex work on their side, and while reclaiming storage from previous overwritten state.
Sure your needs might be limited that you can come up with ad hoc ways to satisfy them with Blossom only and few extra tricks on top, but you can't solve for the general problem without servers helping.
I can write about all the challenges involved in a more coherent manner, but honestly I am not sure anyone cares. So it is one of these things where I have to just build what I want and if people think it is valuable they can help themselves to it.
That being said, even without encryption I think I did a very good job while working on Pubky combining WebDav with cryptographic identity and authentication, and people can use that or learn from it if they want. Or not.
