Good points. Although, having worked on many high scale architectures before, I always err on the side of thinking that any technical solution of this magnitude would have far too many nuances for a blog post to capture. And I believe Figma’s post also talks mainly about the common denominator that’s easier to communicate to the external world.

For me to understand their choices, I’ll first have to understand their system, which can be a task in itself. Without that, I’d not become aware of the nuances, only general patterns.
