    1. Latency, QoS, performance are part of protocol and contract. Pizza is delivered hot and it is part of contract.
    2. 2 kinds of data - high volume, low latency and almost never changes; another low volume, latency not an issue and change all the time - business kind. First may use fast binary encoding. Second may use json and whatever.

    Other stuff - about evolving protocols, testing, collaboration, writing contracts, cost of design.
