What if search itself were a federated function? Although I'm a software dev I really don't know much about the mechanics of large-scale search engines such as Google, but I know their server farms somehow share the load of performing searches and maintaining whatever database they maintain to optimize searching. Seems like the fediverse could do search in a similar way. I'm just saying your critique of the idea, although well thought out, seems like a critique of a particular strategy. It's not obvious to me that the very idea of federated search is outlandish.

Frequent thrift shopper, I've noticed prices going so high I wonder if they know what "thrift store" means anymore.
Doesn't seem to me like you did anything serious enough to be banned from a whole platform, but moderators and administrators are individuals and some of them can't be objective when something presses their person hot buttons. If a right-wing Christian claimed abortion was Sexual Assault, that obviously would not automatically make abortion an off-limits topic, but I can imagine a moderator thinking differently. I agree with your response that nobody was being forced into anything, but using loaded words like "woke" is a good way to get yourself labeled by someone who thinks in memes.
