What happens when you CAS the same key from two sides of a network partition and the partitions rejoin?

As explained in the post, the minority side of the partition is not writable.

Ahh I see it's in the extra small note at the bottom

"I mean primarily the ability to face a network partition and continue providing write service to all clients transitively connected to a majority of servers."

Probably should be a little more prominent considering it's one of the first questions you'd want answered but I was a bit careless to miss it.
