EventSourcing

The sooner we rename Event Sourcing to Ledger Derived State the better ;-)

Especially when things like CosmosDB have change feeds that are (wrongly) called event sourcing rather than source eventing.

(all this is wrt CosmosDB, excuse the tangent) All proper Cosmos Containers by definition only contain events ;)
Seriously though, where do prominent docs say this (I'm more than aware of people having that confusion about the CosmosDB change feed and I would love something to happen to make people get from day one that you're just querying lots of nodes for the doc insert/updates beyond a per-range checkpoint with no delta-ing or eventing of any kind) ?

I'm just over-reacting :-)
