Outbox is a bit of a "No True Scotsman" fallacy. It sets up an unfalsifiable position: whenever there's a problem, people say, 'Ah, you just didn't use Outbox correctly.' That risks creating cargo-cult thinking, where everyone copies patterns without really understanding why.
The thing you need is consistent profiles. And I am unsure outbox really helps here.
