That's not what I meant. There is a complexity cost in having N
subsystems, each of which implements 90% of the funcionality of the
other N-1, but a different 90%. That complexity cost can translate to a
stability cost and a security cost. There's also a cost in the effort
required to create and maintain these systems, not to mention keeping
them up to date on every host that uses them.
