> I added to RSECT in CASSANDRA-1147,
>         // TODO DSS is asked to provide a total of 6 replicas, but we never give it 6 endpoints.
>         // thus we are testing undefined behavior, at best.
> This is easiest to cause in DSS but it can afflict other Strategies too.
> Let's update the ARS contract to state that calculateNaturalEndpoints (hence getNaturalEndpoints too) will throw IllegalStateException if more replicas are requested than the known endpoints (for DSS, this would apply on a per-DC basis) and amend the Strategy classes to check for this.
