At this point, given the maturity of libraries (I was exploring this recently), I think you'd have to make the case that CRDTs are bad not just "too much". Interfacing with the 'blob' is a real thing (y-js is solving some of this with a rust implementation that has cross language binding) but generally the things they noted (e.g. a Figma canvas) aren't things you commonly do joins across and if you did you'd have an independent indexing store for that functionality. With tools like SyncedStore [1] and HocusPocus [2] you end up with a pretty good, we'll tested, easy to implement base for good collaboration. [1] syncedstore.org [2] github.com/ueberdosis/hocuspocus
