defederation doesn’t entirely suppress anything, it just encourages people to switch to instances that are still federated

That’s not a bad thing I think. If you switch because you still wanted to connect to that instance, that’s good, because you moved to an instance that more closely aligns with your values (i.e. more closely aligns to what you want to federate/defederate to/from).
