Oh sorry, I was trying to make the opposite point. :) I don't think there is a good reason to store special policy information in nodes, when it can easily be looked up. And so in this case I am considering the aria.Scaling Policy to be just another policy, which is why I am saying we shouldn't store "default_instances" in the node...
