Since this is repeatedly rehashed on this list without summarizing
*what* is that much broken[1] while serving (rather well, I think)
last 8+ years, perhaps it would deserve some wider dissemination
incl. *why* is that.

Closest thing to come to mind is this, though I don't think
it's a well known reference:
https://corosync.github.io/corosync/doc/presentations/2017-Kronosnet-The-new-face-of-corosync-communications.pdf#page=3

In addition, there are minor notes here and there to be found, e.g.,
on the topic of the networks being presumably of comparable
characteristics with RRP [2,3]:

Can you perhaps give a definite answer here to arising "what" and "why",
also perhaps to provide a credible incentive to upgrade out of something
just sketchily referred to as "broken", please?
