  authority? none… but instance admins can defederate, and that has the potential to be powerful

  this, however, has nothing to do with the original point:

  where there is a can there is always a should or should not… the fediverse has plenty of should or should nots

    Yes - in the broadest, simply practical sense, there are always shoulds and should nots.

    But just as you knew that I wasn't simply asking for a clarification regarding the makeup of that "we," I know that you don't actually believe that that broadest sense of the terms "should" and "should not" is the one I intended when I used them.
