OK. So, thanks to your comment, I looked up a bunch of CompSci and stuff on asynchronous verification to see what old and cutting edge methods are. Looks like it's a mostly solved problem at the conceptual level. Even found a method from NASA for Globally-Asynchronous, Locally-Synchronous (GALS) which I keep stumbling into in hardware.

So, good news, there's a number of techniques for various aspects of this at a range of mathematical abilities. Might be able to make an informal, knock-off of one or more for your use case. The bad news is that I found more papers than I wanted to thoroughly read. Not filtering them myself. If you want, I'll drop you a link to an archive or links to individual papers for you to skim at your own pace. If not, that's cool too as I needed them in my collection anyway for high-assurance, asynchronous systems. Especially given all the uptake on async in mainstream.

So, it was great you replied with those details regardless. Might have inspired a future, bullet-proof system in an unusual instance of the Butterfly Effect. ;)

That'd be nice :D
