I'm still puzzled how some worked for the Speed address and some didn't like you mentioned. I assume its tied to whatever method Speed uses and that being supported but not 100% sure.
i think it was just the transition, the kind 0 user metadata has to be in everyone's client for them to see it
i have done a lot of work with distributed systems and statistical analysis and digital data has that nebulous state transition problem
in the CAP theorem the C is for Consistency which means that every node sees the same thing at the same time
bitcoin is a "probabalistic consistency" protocol, it has a definite random propagation rate and the actual confirmation itself is a poisson point process meaning it's like rain falling out of the sky, you never know when it's gonna land in your eye
