Approaches may be different, though I wouldn't think they are irreconcilable and we could assume that the end result would be the best of both, thus being a better choice. Have you considered reaching out to the Sentry community to see if they would be interested in bringing Argus existing code base into Sentry? If you are interested, I'd be happy to spend some cycles to see if this would be possible. Cheers.
