You should be clear about what is a major design trait, and arguably a major design flaw.

Also, there is already standard terminology for this: centralized VCS. I don't understand why you decided to avoid objective descriptions of your project's single most important design trait and instead resort to vague meaningless buzzwords like "cloud-native" or "real-time". In fact, in light of this those terms start to sound like weasel words used to deceive the reader.
