I sincerely hope not.
Perhaps my choice of wording was not the best? I probably should have said, "there is no foolproof way to guarantee that two systems are not active." Software fails, human beings make mistakes, and surely even STONITH devices can be misconfigured or can fail (or cannot be used for one reason or another).
At any rate, this is all irrelevant given the second part of that email reply that I gave. You still have to do the bitmap combining, regardless of whether two systems were active at the same time or not.
