No, please don't destroy Nostr. This is a tool for scammers, and politicians will love this feature of you. If historical posts could be edited, Nostr would become a den for scammers. I like the feature of Nostr that posts cannot be deleted, because the posts made by each of us, regardless of joys, sorrows, typos, and emotional opinions, represent our true selves on Nostr. Blogs are academic essays, while short posts are about life and yourself.

They can already delete the post and rewrite it with the past date. You won't even notice that they changed it. What you are seeing is an illusion. There is nothing blocking politicians and scammers from changing their posts today. This proposal simply creates an easier way while display the last update time for the honest folks out there.
