> Both because they aren’t strictly necessary to maintain consistency, and 
> because throttling induced by their rate-limiter (see 
> {{hinted_handoff_throttle}}) may stall progress, transferring hints during 
> decommission (specifically unbootstrap) rather than just pausing, disabling, 
> and truncating them probably doesn’t make sense. The only other concern would 
> be the BatchLog, which nominally depends on hint delivery to maintain its 
> "guarantees". However, during BatchLog replay on unbootstrap, 
> {{ReplayingBatch}} ignores batches older the gcgs anyway.
> Here's a proposal from [~aleksey] that might strike a reasonable balance:
> 1.) We continue to transfer hints by default during decommission, but at a 
> higher rate. We could, for instance stop having {{DispatchHintsTask}} divide 
> its effective rate by the number of nodes in the cluster.
> {noformat}
> int nodesCount = Math.max(1, 
> StorageService.instance.getTokenMetadata().getAllEndpoints().size() - 1);
>             double throttleInBytes = 
> DatabaseDescriptor.getHintedHandoffThrottleInKiB() * 1024.0 / nodesCount;
>             this.rateLimiter = RateLimiter.create(throttleInBytes == 0 ? 
> Double.MAX_VALUE : throttleInBytes);
> {noformat}
> 2.) We provide an option to simply avoid transferring hints during 
> unbootstrap. Even this would only take the BatchLog from "best effort" to 
> "slightly less effort" ;)
