> When multiple new members are started concurrently, and no coord is present yet, different clients get different discovery results, and this may lead to merging.
> If we have no coord, we could run the discovery protocol multiple time, *with the current members list being cached*, and then might end up with a more similar list of new members.
> This could be governed by an additional attribute in {{Discovery}} ({{num_discovery_runs}}?)
