Side note: the only reason I think that distinction is worth making at all
is when comparing git to bzr, and even then this is a fairly subtle
distinction, and probably not a huge deal in practice.

I obviously think git is a nicer distributed design, but in the end, if
you compare to something like CVS or SVN that isn't even disconnected, the
difference between git and bzr in this sense is basically zero.

So I sound like I care, but at the same time, I realize very well that
when coming from a totally centralized world, the details we're arguing
are _so_ not important.

I have to agree. Personally I think both git, bzr and mercurial are
all VERY nice systems.  If they weren't all started about the same
time, I doubt we would have all three.

I am happy to use either, but I have a small preference with bzr
because it suites me. I'm saying this, just as a user, nothing else.
