Abstract

Three safety properties of a quorum protocol are measured to be properties of the error regime rather than of the protocol itself. The design principle that follows: the floor of a validation system must be coupled to its filter, or the guarantee is conditional on an error regime nobody stated. Companion paper: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.21926084 Files are under restricted access. Metadata, authorship and date are public; access to the full text is granted on request.
