Could you build this?

No Building a correct, fault-tolerant distributed consensus engine (Raft) in C++20 with atomic WAL persistence, state machines, and protobuf RPC requires specialized systems programming and distributed systems verification.

What it would actually take: Requires implementing the Raft consensus algorithm in modern C++ (C++20), managing async I/O via epoll/asio or io_uring, and serializing via Protocol Buffers. Critical challenges include crash-recovery log compaction, atomic fsync disk persistence, linearizable reads, and deterministic network partition/split-brain testing using Jepsen-style suites.
