> Yeah after thinking more about this

I wonder if we have some mental model that we want to teach to the users?
What is the fetch command (using the ref-in-want capability) supposed to do?
* update to the latest state observed by the latest remote talked to?
* update to some approximate state that is converged from multiple
  remotes?
* update to a state that the first remote had, that we talked to

Having such a model would make it easier for me to follow this discussion.

This is reasoned for by the way we evolve the client, not some state
the user expects to see short or longterm?

ok, that is a sensible way to go forward.
