I really have to disagree here. The OT control algorithm for a Wave client is far more complicated than that used in the Jupiter system on which Wave is based. The server acknowledgement was introduced to allow the server to maintain a single state space rather than a state space per client. The result being lower memory footprint on the server at the expense of higher minimum latency between clients and increased complexity in the OT algorithms.
