Gregory's Server
@jonny @thisismissem threads can’t always be resolved to a global concrete root. For example, you might have been tagged into a private thread that is otherwise entirely on another instance. This is also not necessarily immutable. For example, you might run into the above case with followers only visibility.
So, in this case, it might not actually matter, so long as you actually dedupe on the fly. That might not actually be necessary at all, but doing so could be an optimization.

Right right, I meant global to an instance, like an instance will always have the same notion of root across accounts and client/server. Maybe there's a privacy argument to be made if eg. The OP has blocked someone downthread, but I dont see a huge harm scenario in someone merely knowing about a handle being the OP if they inspect their network traffic.
I guess since the current methods need to traverse and give you all the ancestors anyway, the redis publish call could check for the existence of any subscriptions to parents?
