Thank you, I know that you can do that. My concern is more of a soft question: in practice, in production, isn't that what you always end up doing anyway? And if that's the case, how much of meteor's coolness is lost in the process? If I'm going to be writing rpcs for all writes, why not just use some websocket library?

Meteor's RPCs support automatic optimistic UI updates, where the same code can be used to update the client side data store and the server side database, resulting in the perception of zero latency between server and client. Building that functionality out yourself from scratch could be difficult, since all of the components of Meteor work together to make that experience possible.
