I'll add to what the others have said with an example. The scenario at the start of the article is an example of passive aggression, but it's quite subtle and not explained until later on. Jim has made the effort of cooking pasta

Interesting, I'd not known of this RFC before. Another example of a content-addressed data store could be OCI registries (more commonly known as container image registries). Using them to store arbitrary artefacts is quite well support
