I disagree: repeating the mistakes of Weave is the biggest enemy here. And one 
of those mistakes was thinking that "good enough" was good enough, when it 
manifestly was not, at any level of abstraction. We should not be trading the 
very basics of correctness for the possibility of a closer ship date.

Subject: Re: whats the key anyway?

There are many different ways to do this. And it simply doesn't matter
which one we chose. Losing a usage count is irrelevant. As long we are
reasonably counting, that's perfectly fine. Complexity is our biggest
enemy here. Precision is not a design goal. Fast delivery of a
solution that reasonably approximates consistency is.
