@DavidSchwartz "aren't equivalent at all", "completely intractable", "completely unsolvable". I don't know what your background is, but it could help if you used a more mathematically accurate language.
Both are cases of propagation and synchronization of data across a network and reaching consensus.
If you have a solution for one, you have a solution for the other.
If the amount of data to be transfered is a concern, it's trivial to streamline the algorithm or work out a slightly different one. The algorithm I proposed was very rudimentary.
