That's one of my favorite benchmarks!

You're right that distributed consistency is a beginning, not an end. We are painfully aware of all the startups that have died or are dying on this beach.

It's great to be scalable and consistent, but you have to be more than an operationally-better replacement for legacy SQL. That's one reason we built our own query language that plays to modern application development patterns (serverless, functional, change feeds, etc.) instead of the typical slow, never-quite-there, distributed SQL planner.
