OK, I see I skipped that. Nevertheless, I would expect users to read "exactly once" and put an http call in the step. It's the type of knife people their hands with.

One of the features on our list is to actually warn people when they make external calls inside of a step for this exact reason. You're right, the developer does need to understand idempotency to be successful, but we do everything we can to make sure they are successful without that knowledge.
