Sure, in the end, yes.

But has the network improved in this pre-human phase? I don’t have any grasp about that, because the Comnets had us as part. Every now and then we can read from these updates that stability has improved, but we never hear any metrics. I am not suspecting that it wouldn’t had improved, but it would be nice to know what that improvement means in some terms. More splits and sections? Or, more reliable data handling in one section? Both?

The reason I asked for the logic is that is seems that the split-brain problem of AE lead to Membership thing, because it didn’t work in some edge cases. And it seems that every new approach has it’s own edge cases, where it fails. So I was thinking if there is some underlying impossibility, that can be pushed to the edges, but ultimately, it’s still there?

EDIT: I added an important “not” in the “I am not suspecting…”
