I guess you&#x27;ve indirectly answered my question - Amazon has its own reality
distortion field. Are you really not aware that every other merchant and shipper has specific cutoff times? It&#x27;s based on truck schedule rather than link capacity - the essential measure is <i>weight</i>, which primarily necessitates more fuel.<p>The only &quot;distributed system&quot; in question is Amazon&#x27;s own computer system. In which case no, it does not really seem that difficult to distribute a basically static scalar field.
