> The new topology logic that is not yet turned on in HDFS uses the method {{isSingleSwitch()}} for implementations to declare whether or not they are single switch.
> The use of "switch" is an implementation issue; the big VM-based patch shows that really it's about "flat" vs "hierarchical", with Hadoop assuming that subtrees in the hierarchy have better bandwidth (good) but correlated failures (bad).
> Renaming the method now -before it's fixed and used- is time time to do it.
