I'm glad somebody else said it. It seems lately a new meme is coming around (by many people independently) all saying: Wait, event sourcing / immutable data doesn't scale. I was doing event sourcing in 2010, and loved it. It was incredible. But by the time I started hearing people call it "event sourcing" I had already moved on to: State-based, graph CRDTs. They combine the best of event sourcing with the best of distributed state replication, and are super scalable!
