The top-level comment should at least acknowledge that it's possible. We shouldn't just put up our hands and say "it"s impossible/impractical to have E2EE data without overloading our clients", we should be pushing companies to prioritize research into techniques like encrypted search, so that the "future" can come sooner
I mean it’s like Crypto enthusiasts claiming their coins are green because they can theoretically run on renewables, when the reality is that the majority of miners use fossil fuel sources, and either way the energy is wasted.
Similarly, unless we desire E2EE for everything, it’s both algorithmically and computationally more feasible to stick to centralised unencrypted formats.
