## Limitations
Based solely on this MSC, relations are only received as discrete events in
the timeline, so clients may only have an incomplete image of all the relations
with an event if they do not fill gaps in the timeline.
In practice, this has proven not to be too big of a problem, as reactions
(as proposed in [MSC 2677](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2677))
tend to be posted close after the target event in the timeline.
A more complete solution to this has been deferred to
[MSC2675](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2675).
