-Storm goals:
+Storm goals/benefits:
 
 - Reliability
   - Append-and-delete-only
+  - The same data can be stored in many locations,
+    allowing it to be easily reconstructed after failure
+  - Versioning: Old versions remain accessible
 - If a document is accessible, references to it work
 - Links do not break
-- Documents can be merged
-- Inter-document structures can be merged
+- Easy syncing:
+  - Just copy a bunch of blocks
+  - Documents can be synced & merged
+  - Inter-document structures can be synced & merged
+  - Syncing can be done without merging immediately,
+    leaving two alternative versions current
+    (so e.g. an automated process is entirely possible,
+    even when there are conflicts)
