There's no requirement for it to do so, and I agree, that would be an 
ill-conceived implementation.

Correct.  If 1 fails, we will immediately withdraw 2 and 3, since they 
would no longer serve any function.

That would be the sensible thing to do, it seems to me.  We didn't want to 
get into over-specifying how all this should be done.  The idea of the 
proposal was to define a set of minimum needs, rather than detail an exact 
implementation, which we feel can better be arrived at by staff 
interacting with membership in the real world.
