If you stretch "CRDT" to mean any old eventually consistent thing, almost every Unix tool morphs into one under a loose enough definition. That makes the term much less useful, because practical CRDTs in 2024 usually mean opaque merge semantics, awkward failure modes, and operational complexity that has very little in common with the ancient algorithms people point at when they say "Git is a CRDT too". "Just Git" is doing a lot of work there.
