But relays allow me to provide very long lists of pubkeys to filter what I want to see. I can get all from my WoT and work from there. The influencer asking for global reaction count is so dead-bird-...

In general I agree with both of you. Filtering can be done either side. Personally I prefer client-side filtering and dumb relays because it puts me in control. I don't get to choose the relay that has the right censorship policies. The people I follow choose the relays, not me. But that only affects their posts and it makes some sense too.

Asking relays to compute WoT so you don't have to upload long lists of pubkeys has performance consequences and I'm not sure if it is better or worse.

Just to clarify here: I think we're talking about "read" relays, not "write" relays. So it's actually the reader who picks the default relays for the interaction, right? Or at least those relays picked by the receiver are the ones that carry most importance in such interactions.
