The very worst kind of determinism errors are butterfly effect like in that you don’t notice the desync until long after the cause has occurred. It’s pretty imperative if you’re building a deterministic system to add a layer of error checking right from the start so you can ensure each party ends up in the same state and identify desync very early. On the other hand you also want to identify where desync doesn’t matter (for example most FX) so you limit the scope of what has to be deterministic to keep things simple.
