"We take our consistency guarantees, and correctness more generally, deadly serious"
That is empty talk, ie advertising.
In a distributed database, as is the state of the art, you sacrifice one of: availability, consistency, performance.
This is true for every db, be it Spanner, or MongoDb.
Best to document what exactly was sacrificed. Just claiming that you "take it seriously" means nothing. BTW good luck :)
