I think what you are missing is that validating servers/clients would not allow non-validating servers to rejoin the cluster (i.e.: servers/clients with validation enabled will validate both outgoing and incoming connections). A

As I wrote in the previous comment, you can do that in restic with the "--exclude-if-present" option where you can specify whatever filename you want as well as optionally some content it must start with to avoid false positives

Aren't reducer-based stores (redux, useReducer) effectively "FSMs with pure functions"? These have been quite popular since very early in React's history. Am I missing something?

Gatsby does ssr in batch during build time. The pages are rendered in a pool of worker processes. I haven't found a way to tell gatsby to attach my debugger when launching those processes. Gatsby's docs on debugging HTML builds [1

3) I think the worry is China forcing Apple to produce this info (list of HK users with said app installed), not what Apple themselves would do with it. Maybe not a dealbreaker, but something to consider...
