Both conflict resolution and deletion strategy scale in the same way with distribution topology — simple structural mechanisms for single-node systems (optimistic locking, soft delete), metadata-based approaches for replicated systems (version vectors, tombstones) — showing a uniform architectural response where distribution complexity drives strategy sophistication across independent concerns.
Both conflict resolution and deletion follow the same single-node → replicated escalation pattern
