You can have also the case both nodes crash ... The bottom line is that a write loss can occur in any system. I am always surprised to hear even senior consultants saying that in a high reliability database no write loss can occur or the risk is low (think about the human factor! Eg an admin accidentally shuts down both or some automated maintenance procedure of the underlying operating system).
