Thanks Rajesh, I am aware of the inhibition rules approach and the success that users have had with it. I encourage you to read the GitHub thread for more discussion on this, but the current line of thinking is that this approach is quite complex, especially for new users, and also requires users to define recording rules in Prometheus for something that should be theoretically outside of Prometheus' 'awareness' if you will, as it's purely an alerting decision.
