100% agree with everything in your post. I don't see how it contradicts anything I've said though.

> the former needs to be built into the spec or it will continue to be broken.

Absolutely, but ActivityPub doesn't preclude that. There's no reason for that proposed feature to be incompatible with the spec., or to have to exist in an implementation that is incompatible with ActivityPub.

Fwiw Mastodon, the most popular ActivityPub implementation, is (as is often the case with open standards) not actually fully compliant with the spec. They implement features they need as they need & propose them. This is obviously a potential source of integration pains, but as long the intent to be compatible is still there, it's still a better situation.

and I believe CalcKey? is adding account content migration, which is why Eugen is suddenly talking about account migration again.
