> Marketing note: I'm sure you're proud of P Core/V Core, but that doesn't matter to your users, it's an implementation detail. At a maximum I'd write "intelligent execution that scales from small files to large files".

Speaking personally, "intelligent execution that scales from small files to large files" sounds like marketing buzz that could mean absolutely nothing. I like that it mentions specifically switching between RAM and disk-powered engines, because that suggests it's not just marketing speak, but was actually engineered. Maybe P vs V Core is not the best way to market it, but I think it's worth mentioning that design.

Thanks for the thoughtful take—really appreciate both perspectives.

You're right that terms like "intelligent execution" can feel vague without concrete backing. My goal with mentioning P Core/V Core was to hint at the underlying design—switching between in-memory and disk-based engines like Polars and Vaex—without overwhelming with technical detail.

I’ll look for a better way to explain the idea clearly and briefly. Thanks again!
