Ending the wait state does not cause data loss. It puts you at *risk* of
data loss, which is a different thing entirely.
If you want to avoid data loss you use N+k redundancy and get on with
life, rather than sitting around waiting.
Putting in a feature for people that choose k=0 seems wasteful to me,
since they knowingly put themselves at risk in the first place.
