Yes I get that now, but it is hard to read (or was for me.) When I see
"out" I think of messages flowing out of the router to the client - all
good. When I see "balanced" I think of a flow of things being
distributed over a set of targets. And I already have a flow of
outbound things in mind so I feel like I might be understanding
something. But the things that are being balanced are not the
*out*bound messages but the *in*bound link open requests. My brain
can't turn around that fast.
