Yeah, but the federation as a whole will defederate from instances outside of a minimal acceptable set of politics.

Yes, but federation isn’t really about enabling one singular discussion space. Network splits are ultimately healthy for the communities, because it allows for self-governance and actual community building, rather than unmanageably large masses screaming into themaatically named voids, controlled by a handful of super-mods and super-admins.
Distributed networks are meant to be, well, distributed, not quasi-centralized with some fun URLs used as dumb terminals.

I like how you said “minimal”, like it’s a floor and not a flavour.
No-no, it’s perfect like that. Don’t dare change it.

I wouldn’t dare.
