I agree, but those aren’t the kinds of borders OP is talking about, I think. And it’s a naïve simplification, in any case.
I interpret OPs point is about free travel and employment, without restriction or passports. The kind of “no borders” that exists in the EU: any citizen of a country in the EU can travel to, live in, and work in any other EU member country, without restriction, without limitations, and without passport.
It doesn’t require, but is greatly facilitated by, a common currency; and as the EU has demonstrated, there’s a lot of moving parts for this to function well. Having a common set of standards for human rights, having some basic economic model alignment, having mutual non-aggression agreements for a members… they’re all essential components. Heck, I’d suggest that it’d be super-helpful if there was adopted a neutral, universal second language that all member countries require children to take a couple of years of in the public education system - a conlang like Esperanto (by virtue of sheer numbers of speakers), but certainly one where no single country has a advantage by having it be the natural native language, which excludes English.
Anyway, that’s the kind of “no borders” I think OP is talking about, not the governance kind.

That’s called an open border. No border is a stupid thing unserious morons on the internet make up.
