Not sure how your comment refutes the contention of reliability. Seems to me to be more a condemnation of failures that do happen (which is of course worthy of concern, but irrelevant in a conversation about stability).

I am using "reliability" in the sense of RAS[0]. An HA datastore which erroneously ACK's writes has lowered reliability, as there are known cases where it gives incorrect outputs.

I see. Yeah, more concerning there being errors not based on an "event". Thanks for clarifying; sorry for any confusion.
