While I have no objection to being thorough, being that thorough would require a discussion of each of the alternatives, which seems like overkill at this point. > along with the term "node liveness," the document mentions "node's > reachability".

Reachability is a well-understood graph theoretic term. I realize that some people still don’t understand it, but I’m not going to spend everyone’s valuable time reproducing Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reachability <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reachability>). I specifically used “node liveness” to emphasize that this is NOT dealing with “service liveness”. Tony
