A question on endpoint slices:why dont they send patch updates? A patch is the delta that changes an object instance.

Because safe generalized PATCH operations require the client and server to agree on the immediately prior state and the order of application of patches to avoid creating “Frankenstates”. They’re not a good general purpose API building block.

The client could do a full list request when it starts to get the baseline and then listen for patch updates.
That would be kind of an operator in reverse.
