#shitmyvendorsays
when you read between the lines of all these foofy claims, the secret sauce is aggregation.

if they don't sample, then they pre-aggregate.

and if they aggregate, then it's not observability, because o11y hinges on your ability to *ask new questions*, and that means raw events.
i also like "second-level granularity". that means all the requests that happen over the course of a second, get smushed into a single number.

a lot of shit happens in a second, y'all.

"i can narrow the bug down to these ten thousand requests" does sound less impressive 🙃
