My point is simply, shutting off a component means changing the load balancing algorithm. Depending on how that's done, either the set of flows on the component being shut off, or all flows, will be affected. Resuming the use of a shut-off component similarly affects some (or all) flows. An implementor may want to consider the trade-offs of saving power but affecting flows vs. not.
