I don't think we're on the same page on this. In my mind, VERY FEW
PEOPLE would know about my node's existence at all -- only folks that
I'd made out-of-band agreements with.

I don't think it would be a popularity contest at all. Even if I was
very trustworthy, I wouldn't set up an agreement with YOU if you were
untrustworthy.
