Are there any plans for optimistic updates by default?
Hello community. I have just migrated my app from Firebase and see that all mutations are pessimistic by default in convex. This was not expected. It breaks UX in many places, like drag and drop and even droplists. Is there a reason for the default "pessimism" in Convex philosophy? Is there, by any chance, a plan to have configuration in the future to make all mutations optimistic by default? I love Convex and feel it's a dream product, but the requirements for verbose optimism make me think of going back to Firebase, which is optimistic, reactive, and offline by default.
