Status: IN
The KV write path separates coordinator responsibility (local_put increments vector clocks, wraps deletes as tombstones) from replication (local_put_raw accepts pre-built VersionedValues), enabling read repair and anti-entropy to use the raw path without re-incrementing clocks.
Coordinator path owns causal metadata; replication path preserves it — preventing clock inflation during repair
