I understand exactly that and I don't disagree, except in the case where
it is going to bring down the master (see my further reply). I now
remember arguing about this a few years ago when we started down the
sync path.
Anyway, perhaps this is just something of a knob that can be turned. We
don't have to continue the argument. Thank you for considering what I
was saying.
Sincerely,
JD
