The fundamental problem is that the idea of an object with a set of state that is the same to all observers violates pretty much the whole of information theory. It&amp;#x27;s not a problem that will ever be fixed with out changing the fundamental laws of the universe.&lt;p&gt;Ditch the mutable data and you can stop asking questions like what do we do if 10 becomes 10.5 before it becomes 11 and start storing values which never change.</text></comment>
