For the record, that is false. Windows quite strictly performs these
steps, and deliver millions of real 4K IOPS over SMB Direct.

Waiting for local invalidate to complete would be a really big
sacrifice for our storage ULPs.

Not waiting would also be a sacrifice, by compromising data integrity.
It's a tough tradeoff, but if you choose to go that way it will be
critical to be honest about the consequences to the data.
