Check this out for general background discussion https://piefed.social/post/205362. The idea to differentiate by trusted instances was mine and not discussed there. Pretty sure there was some discussion about it in the Matrix channel which is lost to time.

During the recent roadmap planning one of the potential units of work was to sort all this out https://piefed.social/post/411591 but it didn't garner significant interest and didn't make it through to the final version of the roadmap.

Hah, I am all over that first thread already. Also in that second thread. This discussion is getting pretty out of band at this point, but I've actually thought about proper cryptographic solutions to this problem, but it would require modifying activity pub itself. Which is why I'm very much in favor of voting agent anarchy to force the issue.
