You don't know this. Google results are not the same for all users. How do you know there isn't R/W going on, particularly when signed-in to Google?

However they get to defer, retry and play lots of eventually consistent tricks, worst case just swallow the exceptions. The fact they can make the service _seem_ to the end user as fully working whilst being unable to write is a major factor in achieving their world beating reliability.
