I don't understand this article and It's like the author doesn't really know what they're talking about. They don't want eventual consistency, they want read-your-writes, a consistency level that's stronger than EC yet still not strong.

Read-your-writes is indeed useful because it makes code easier to write: every process can behave as if it was the only one in the world, devs can write synchronous code, that's great ! But you don't need strong consistency.

I hope developers learn a little bit more about the domain before going to strong consistency.
