I just reread the Wikipedia article on CRDTs and was actually wrong. I only had a subset of CRDTs in mind but they actually encompass a much wider class than I thought. In some way I now understand the fuzz about them even less, they now look almost trivial, but maybe I am still not understanding some important aspect properly. Should maybe read the paper introducing them. But at the very least I should not complain about people calling things CRDTs that actually fall under the actual definition.

that's... a very reasonable response. Nice one.

I think the fuzz comes from the more esoteric CRDTs, which solve actually hard problems (traditionally solved by Operational Transforms). But I don't think I could have created a simple example in the blog post for one of these.
