Thanks for your comment, and I hope you enjoyed the article.

Ensuring exactly-once delivery is a broker-specific problem, but you are right; that can be challenging, and readers should keep that in mind. We could say the same for cross partition message ordering.

That said, I don't see the central data highway as unique or monolithic. For example, it could be a distributed set of message brokers forming a data mesh. Hopefully, my metaphor did not bring back too many bad memories.
