Genuine question: how do you know you've never lost a single write?

Different sets of data goes to different pipelines.

eg: aerospike will have counters to cap a certain transaction and when we do offline aggregations from logs written through a completely different system, the numbers have to match.

If something is capped to spend $100 and the aggregations don't match up to exactly $100, then there's something wrong, especially with very fine grain numbers.
