Re:Why Your Social.org Files Can Have Lines Without Issues?

So, It leverages on HTTP range requests to try fetching only what's needed, but to me it seems that it's something that should be efficiently achievable without having to have a unified document.
In my filesystem I could arrange things to be easy to fetch
ls ~/Org/Social/2025/10/
and then fetch the documents I didn't have.
I feel that all this logic is just to workaround problems that may arise when fetching multiple small files, mostly tied to overhead and artificial data ordering when fetching a set of tiny files. Hasn't HTTP3 fixed most of them already?
