Here's an assessment of the proposed frontend architecture:

• Outcome/State: The product cannot guarantee survival of edits through device loss or complete power failure, nor can it claim conflict resolution is solved.
• Preserved Information: Only two copies of a conflict are retained on the same device, and the sync protocol propagates deletions, which is insufficient for robust recovery.
• Recovery Action and Rejected Alternative: The current local transaction only handles process restarts; it cannot recover from power or device loss. Removing conflict review from the keyboard interface is premature and risky.
• Missing Contract or Clarification: There's no documented contract for restart-safe storage beyond process restart, nor for how deletions are handled during conflict resolution or synchronization across devices.
