if you choose consistency than the only negative result of a distributed system is consistency based latency. i.e. Time to become consistent which reduces your response time to the client. so there's a linear relationship between reducing sync time and reducing response time until at some point in reducing sync time you reduce response time below a level you give a shit about... and you have all 3 of consistency, availability, and partitioning and then you have beaten the CAP theory
