The BLP is single-threaded, and the component that modifies the application's current state. It is my understanding that "Events" in event-sourcing are immutable and that state is just a memoized computation over the total journal of events -- so the layer of atomiticity that is provided is at the event level (as the BLP only processes one event at a time.)

So the system is as "weak as its strongest link".

Hmm.
