Given the axioms of the discussion, it would be an entire book. The
contention was that IBM shipping capacity that isn't used "doesn't make
sense".

Having a spare "engine" to switch over to in the event of a failure in
the primaty engine(s) can make a HUGE difference for a shop that needs
to maximize availability.
