wait a minute ... or no? let's say a write comes to two nodes which are online 
and the third one which is offline. If a node which has CDC enabled is the one 
which is down, we do not have anything. But if CDC is enabled on the one which 
is up, we have it, but the write actually didn't happen from client's 
perspective.

Is this correct?

> In the cassandra.yaml file, there is a parameter named "cdc_enabled" which 
> allows CDC to be enabled or disabled on each individual nodes.
> It has been found that it can cause schema disagreement or discrepancy when 
> an "ALTER TABLE ... WITH cdc=..." statement is ran against a node which has 
> "cdc_enabled" set to "false" in a cluster in which nodes have mixed 
> "true"/"false" values for the "cdc_enabled" settings.
> The exact behaviour of the above is version-dependant.
> On Cassandra 4.1.1, the cluster will end up in the schema disagreement state. 
> A rolling restart will bring the schema back in sync, but the changes made to 
> the `cdc` table property will be lost. 
> On Cassandra 4.1.6, the cluster will not have visible schema disagreement in 
> the "nodetool describecluster" command's output, but the "ALTER TABLE" 
> statement only has cosmetic effect on the node it is run. The node with 
> "cdc_enabled" set to "false" will show the "cdc" table property has changed, 
> but this does not affect its behaviour in any way. At the same time, other 
> nodes do not see that table property change at all. This is perhaps even 
> worse than on 4.1.1, because the alter table statement is silently failing. 
> On Casandra 5.0.0, the behaviour is the same as 4.1.6.
> A shell script for reproducing the above described behaviours in Docker, and 
> the outputs of it on both 4.1.1 and 4.1.6 and 5.0.0 are attached.
>  
> Edit on 25 Sep: added test result on 5.0.0
