The main value prop of CRDTs is they can be used without a central server (for example, in p2p networking, or when offline.) If you're choosing between a CRDT or something else like this for your centralized server, you're probably not thinking about things properly.

I think that’s the point of comparing this to CRDTs - to show that there may be a better tool for the job if you’ve been considering CRDT because it’s seen some recent popular exposure
