Nostr relays are like rendesvous points on the internet, which could replace the need for many centralized services, such as RMM services.
Tor imposes a lot of overhead, but SSH works well when connecting to a server via a Hidden Service, which involves multiple TLS tunnels.
This program/protocol would only use ephmeral events, so only a few NIPs need to be implemented.
Thankfully I am not really in the MSP world. But, a part of my job requires that I use an RMM service, which is very rough around the edges, due to some serious design flaws.
I have looked at all other options, and making a new protocol is the only option -- well, other than quitting this job.

I was just comparing to a more general socat-like server, but yea compared to Tor it'd still be a massive improvement and might have added benefits by being able to hide amongst other traffic on public infrastructure.

You probably wouldn't need any in that case as the relay will just dump them, your protocol would just be an application that uses nip01 as it defines kind ranges for ephemeral events... then yours is just an application with a specific kind, there's a few like that including ours: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips#event-kinds
