OP seems to have taken significant steps to not have SPOF (two OI
servers serving up targets) and so friendly chap points out what would
be an omission to not having an SPOF but gets a retort for pointing out
what seems to be a significant omission if the premise to remove all
SPOF is true.
I don't really know what the case is but I just thought that friendly
chap deserved more than a rude retort.
