No, they don’t. Imagine you take a machine down for maintenance and while that machine is down you loose a disk. You lost data. Although you can bring back the other machine you are still missing transactions. This is not fictional, this happens. Same as that during the backfill of a disk you just lost the disk with the remaining copy dies under the load of the backfills. I have seen this happen too many times in the last years. Don’t try to cut corners.
