While other systems such as Celestia and Danksharding (planned) also make use of Reed Solomon encoding, they do so only for the purpose of supporting certain observability properties of Data Availability Sampling (DAS) by light nodes.

Horizontal scalability provides the promise for the technological bottlenecks of DA capacity to continually track demand, which has enormous implications for Layer 2 ecosystems.
