I toyed a bit with your test and it is safe as long as node1 has is own
archive. So yes, technically there's no problem.
When node3 and node1 has shared archive some write activity triggers
problematic behavior.
PFA demo test to illustrate this. First step is your v1 patch intact.
Step 2 is test change to trigger the problem.
Anyway, this happens only when nodes have common archive.
