Which, in many cases, already was a single point of failure. Keeping a few spare, low-grade switches at least allows you to get things back up quickly in many cases. Whether that's 'true' redundancy is probably another debate. That said, even with switches being a single point of failure, introducing CARP does allow for additional benefits (such as maintenance becoming far less disruptive).
