I have a question about the section from the documentation below:

Distributed locking and pages using frames Tomcat does not keep session
instances in sync across the cluster. The implementation of such logic would
be to much overhead and cause all kinds of problems. If your client accesses
the same session simultanously using multiple requests, then the last
request will override the other sessions in the cluster. 

How, for example, would a client be able to access the same session
simultaneously? (Because for non-simultaneous requests, wouldn't each
request's changes to the session be replicated to all nodes in the cluster
before the next request?)

Could someone give examples of the unwanted consequences of this overriding
of existing sessions from new requests? I'm just not really wrapping my head
around this.

Thanks.
