Clients are members of the cluster, because they are not just thin clients
but provide full API set which is the same as for embedded server nodes.
However, clients use different discovery protocol which protects them from
issues you described.

Yes, there are example of successful usage in similar scenarios. It's not
very typical though, so can require some tuning.

.NET client is wrapped around Java implementation to provide fully-pledged
platform instead of limited thin client. JVM is required to run .NET client.
