Understandable. Perhaps an improvement would be to decrease the
total number of nodes in case a node left the cluster. That way,
a four-node cluster could have quorum in case two nodes left at
different points in time. I'm not sure if that's possible and
what other repercussions it could have on the cluster stability.

Either should work. The quorumd should be preferable, but I
understand that not all people had good experience when deploying it.

Thanks,
