Say node 1 sees MSCP nadvertisements for DISK A by both nodes 2 and 3.

If node 2 loses connection to disk A, and node 2 can't tell other nodes
that it has lost access to diskj A,  how is node 1 going to know that it
must now ask node 3 for any access to Disk A snce node 2 has lost its
connection to it ?
