Marcus Eriksson commented on CASSANDRA-6434:
--------------------------------------------
Yes, it is really only extra safety for now, if something happens so that
repairs cannot run for gc_grace for example
> Repair-aware gc grace period

> Since the reason for gcgs is to ensure that we don't purge tombstones until
> every replica has been notified, it's redundant in a world where we're
> tracking repair times per sstable (and repairing frequentily), i.e., a world
> where we default to incremental repair a la CASSANDRA-5351.
