I must be missing something. The paper describes the algorithm of the CRDT and mentions that "timestamps ’t need to be globally unique and totally ordered".

Then it mentions multiple times that Lamport clocks/timestamp can be used as the timestamp in their system but as far as I know these only give a partial order of events. How is this reconciled in their system?
