I couldn't care less whether it is unicast or multicast. What I do care
about is that if it is possible for two components to call the method, that
there not be a silent failure. But, hey, I am looking forward to a use case
for a public API in a component architecture that justifies silently
ignoring error conditions, and not notifying the caller that the behavior it
expects will never occur.
