gollark: Why?

gollark: Hmm, how *does* this block deduplication even? Do I need it? Do osmarksßssystemsmsmses™ require this sort of thing?

gollark: Explain that.

gollark: And yet Deduplication also provides Delta Compression of closely matching chunks using Bsdiff. Minhashing is used to detect similar chunks.?

gollark: I think lojban aims to do this with its vocabulary roots.
