The majority of NFTs store their metadata on IPFS

So? It is a system external to the blockchain with NFTs, that's the problem. One of the problems.
Because IPFS is decentralised permanent storage. Blockchain handles ownership, IPFS handles metadata, visual assets, etc. It's kinda how things work in real world with real estate, for example. There is a registry and there is physical property. Same here.
