In what way is it censorship-resistant?
You have 5 relays in your profile. If feds raid all 5 relays, your profile will become empty in most clients. You could try to manually fish out all of your posts that got replicated by other relays and then specify all these relays as your new relays but this would be both extremely tedious and luck-based.
Now you could have a neat archive with all of your events ready to be rebroadcast to any set of relays... but at that point this level of preparedness isn't a feature of Nostr nor would it uniquely benefit Nostr, because if you have such an archive you could just as well deploy it in full to a fresh account on any other social media platform, no matter how censorious it is.
