How are NFTs relevant?
they aren't, except perhaps as a counterexample of some dubious sort
They were supposedly anchors to claim ownership of things in the real world.

They're fancy receipts, and if people thought of them as just that it might be a technology with some limited non-monetary uses. But, the crypto grift was too strong.
Marking all your comments CC BY-NC-SA is a good bit.
The point of NFTs (beyond the pyramid scheme) was to enforce artificial digital scarcity at the individual level
They sold snake oil nothing else.
