Hey author here - I'm super interested to see if this way of slicing up the design space resonates with anyone.
As someone who has been in and around distributed systems for many years now, I do feel like we're cresting into a new generation of system design that tries to take into account the lessons of the last one. This question of how we reduce centralization of risk while retaining our ability to distribute safety fixes is a rich one I think.
