It seems to me that maybe saying that CRDTs are "good for one particular problem," whereas Reflect can do anything, is a bit misleading? Reflect is eventually consistent, but if you want e.g. string mutations to make sense, you still need to de facto model your text as a CRDT. (Unique IDs per letter, tombstones, etc.) Otherwise, you'll end up with garbled text.
