Not quite. There can be non-deterministic race conditions, and strange head size and sequence length requirements.

Yes. For a model within the limits of the head requirements, however, you wouldn’t be able to see a quality difference from regular attention. Non determinism is a performance price; regular transformers may also suffer from it depending on the implementation.
