I'm not sure why it was a single event at the start, it seems simple but turns out to be more complex. An event for each follow makes a lot more sense and avoids conflicts between clients that can overwrite a follow list. Gossip is the only client that I know that has dealt with it well, by giving options to merge. However, all of that is not needed if each follow is a single event. Furthermore, if each follow is an event, it can be private or public. It can also be an identity confirmation and include more information to record the name and other kind 0 meta that will help security.
