----------------------------------------------
Yes, exactly.
> I expect ReplicaNotAvailableException to have proper Javadocs

> It looks like ReplicaNotAvailableException was copy and pasted from
> LeaderNotAvailable exception. The Javadocs were never changed. This means
> that users think that ReplicaNotAvailableException signifies leaders are not
> available. This is very different from, "I can ignore this exception," which
> is what the Kafka protocol docs say to do with ReplicaNotAvailableException.
> Related: what's the point of ReplicaNotAvailableException if it's supposed to
> be ignored?
