I'd argue that stateful is really hard to get right when machines panic

NFS seems simple in hindsight but like a lot of things, getting to that
simple wasn't chance, it was designed to be stateless because nobody
had a way to save the state in any reasonable way.
I guess alternatively, what was interesting or
neat, about RFS, if
anything? And what was bad?
Good: Stateful implementation, remote devices worked.
