Jan 4 at 14:48 comment added Ewan I agree with you on your annoyance points, But basilevs nails it, this guy has a single actual problem or perceived problem, counters causing locks, Which I think is 100% a good question and suitable for SE. But asks multiple questions dancing around the rules as each one of his questions gets downvoted or close voted or negative comments. Rather than engage in a (verboten) discussion which might bring out a good solution, or expose the underlying issue.
Jan 4 at 14:44 comment added Ewan you bring up another side issue that bothers me. negative votes on answers to a question the voter (presumably) doesn't like. I think there is a rule you cant close questions with upvoted answers? does this encourage more downvoting? (ps i upvoted you to cancel out)
Jan 4 at 1:06 comment added Basilevs He is constrained by an existing system. It hard to put all those limitations in a quesrion. And even when it is possible, without additional details, the system may seem like a Rube Goldberg machine. I assume that contention he observes is caused by some detail he fails to provide or we fail to see. For example, his postprocesssing workers seem ridiculous and introduce both unnecessary contention and inconsistnecies without achieving anything useful, but they likely implement some unrelated business requirement.
