> This isn’t obviously wrong

I thought it was obviously wrong. Server A calls Server B, and Server B calls server A. Because when I read the code my first thought was that it is circular. Is it really not obvious? Am I losing my mind?

The mention of `persistent_term` is cool.

It wasn’t obvious to the AI that wrote the article. There’s still hope for humans :)

Servers are not ever supposed to be calling each other, also not in longer chains. They're supposed to layered and you only call "down".

It is too common / useful. Not everything is a tree.
