I believe this makes Amazon S3 behave more similar to Azure blob storage[1] and Google Cloud Storage[2], which is pretty convenient for folks who are abstracting blob stores across different offerings.

For what it’s worth, consistency in S3 was usually pretty good anyways, but I ran into issues where it could vary a bit in the past. If you designed your application with this in mind, of course, it shouldn’t be an issue. In my case I believe we just had to add some retry logic. (And of course, that is no longer necessary.)

Wasabi is eventually consistent for overwrites ``eventual consistency for overwrite HTTP PUTs and HTTP DELETEs``

This is not the same.

Yes, I'm aware.
