Hi, OP. Any thoughts on why to prefer using your OLTP for queueing as opposed to Kafka? In my mind it would be a drop in ease of observability (though there is still KSQL and a number of UI wrappers) in exchange for much better performance. I'm interested if you had other reasons.

Observability is a big advantage, another advantage (in the context of DBOS specifically) is integration with durable workflows, so you can write a large workflow that enqueues and manages many smaller tasks.
