This means that - when the single active is being updated - there's a
time when there's no MDS active, right?

Is another approach theoretically feasible? Have the updated MDS only go
into the incompatible mode once there's a quorum of new ones available,
or something?

(From the point of view of a distributed system, this is double plus
ungood.)
