Putting decision inside the code is interesting... but scattered. Some decisions are made way higher up and implicitly touch many places

Yeah, this doesn’t solve the “why Redis” problem. What I’m most concerned about with this is stopping someone who might be trying to update the code in the future (including me) from going down a rabbit hole I’ve already been down.

Yeah that's the point of being able to revisit past ADRs easily. Will have demo soon
