The main [ord](https://github.com/casey/ord) instance at [ordinals.com](https://ordinals.com) is now running redb, and I'm starting to think about how to deal with reorgs of the bitcoin blockchain. We have a few tables,...
Have you given thought to what the default write strategy should be? I lean towards `WriteStrategy::Throughput`, since it doesn't have the caveat about a malicious workload, and people are likely...
