    I guess there will be wasted work in the sense that the tasks will get 
allocated to the bad executor and then the executor will be removed and all of 
those tasks are relocated to the healthy ones. That's probably fine from a 
correctness standpoint but might create a bit of a performance latency... I'm 
open to the discussion of doing another architecture overhaul to get the 
soft-unregistration construct done.
    
    The other thing I'm wondering is if it's even worth offloading this 
communicate-with-AM logic to be asynchronous at all. How big of a performance 
penalty would it be to block the event loop with the request to the AM for the 
get-executor-loss-reason? I presumed that it was unacceptable to do that 
blocking request on the main event loop though.
