Jeezs. Thanks for the breakdown. I suppose the layering of different, complicated patterns make it too thick to parse. And some of the CRDT APIs leak quite a bit of complexity once you want to do something a little more complicated eg wrap rich text editor content.
I put at least some of the blame on text editors themselves. Many text editors - particularly on the web - don't expose a clean event based API telling you what changed. Its very annoying.
