What's your opinion on exposing the option of stale vs. consistent read in the API? I can see cases where I'd be ok with a stale read while for others I'd like the most up-to-date value.

That makes a lot of sense, there are definitely use cases where to read a past value is viable, especially considering the big difference in performances between the two kind of reads.
