The key is that you can't run a relay. It's not just "costly" but already out of reach of pretty much everyone who isn't a VC-funded startup, and the amount of storage needed to do it (ie. to mirror every post ever) is growing every day. That's why there's only one relay. It's not meaningfully federated right now if federation is theoretically possible but not *at all* being done.
