distributed-correctness-undermined-at-both-layers

Status: OUT

Distributed system correctness is undermined at both the storage and protocol layers: storage engines silently assume single-threaded access (no locks, no assertions, no documentation), while the quorum protocol weakens its own semantic guarantees (counting hint storage as successful writes, allowing sub-quorum configurations without error).

Justifications

Concurrency unsafety in storage compounds with weakened quorum semantics in the distributed layer
