IMO nothing should ever depend on boot order of nodes. If your application requires this, its architecture is wrong. If you need A up before B, that strongly says to me that the application running on B will die horribly if/when A goes away, even temporarily. I've seen distributed systems built this way due to devs taking shortcuts and it bit them horribly further down the line.
Staggering VM startup, to prevent a "thundering herd" is a different, far more valid, problem.
