What does read-after-write consistency really mean on new object PUT in S3?

Question

Amazon documentation (http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/Introduction.html#ConsistencyModel) states:

\"Amazon S3 provides read-after-write consistency for P

As of Dec 1, 2020 (https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/amazon-s3-update-strong-read-after-write-consistency/) S3 does provide strong read after write consistency. However, it's still not clear that GET from a different client (other than the client which sent PUT request) will see the updated result. The blog mentions, "What you write is what you will read, and the results of a LIST will be an accurate reflection of what’s in the bucket."

Also in the distributed systems literature there is 'read-your-own-write' consistency model and a 'consistent read across clients after write' is the ultimate objective (not saying that it's impossible).

I suspect that S3 is eventually consistent for reads from different clients. There should be more clarity from AWS on this point, I feel.
