I think we try too hard to solve problems that we do not even have yet. It is much better to build a simple system that is correct than a messy one that never stops. I see people writing bad code because they are afraid of the network breaking. We should just let the database do its job.

But consistency is a choice we need to make when deciding how to use a database.

By letting databases do its job, you let someone else make a trade off for you
