> CRDT literally means Conflict-free Replicated Data Type.
Git could be "conflict-free" with a simple `rand(ours, theirs)`.
It would be useless, but technically "conflict-free". Is the addition or removal of that rand function really, pragmatically the difference in the answer to "what is a CRDT?"
Adding extra rules on top of git to try to turn it into a CRDT doesn't make git one, even if you succeed (and rand would not succeed). You can do that with a pencil and paper, but that doesn't make paper a CRDT.
Are you open to understanding why this isn't true? If so, I'm happy to help you come to the correct understanding; please ask whatever questions are necessary. Otherwise, then, well, okay!
