Yes.. that would be hard to get a fidonet-wide consensus to do that.

However, having some echos revitalized by showing up could be a good thing.
What's lacking is attracting a userbase to maintain the chat momentum.  Where
*is* everybody?  

I told a cousin of mine that I would be reducing my FB usage next to zero. And
if she wanted to reach me then she could try https://t.me/aabolins ..and go
from there.  She's still sticking with FB; based on all the selfie's and
automatic live posting of the most recent restaurant or shopping destination,
she's not much of a conversationalist anyway.
