If "sharded" is not the right term, than "monolithic" doesn't seem like the 
right term, either, right?

If "thin" basically refers to how much information is given to the lto steps 
(for which "thin" seems to be a good name actually), then "full" seems to be a 
good term for the, well, full information.
