Thanks for the clarification.

A follow up question, then, given *once joined all nodes are equal*, is that:

should the node A dies or taken out of the group, the remaining three node group (with B, C and D) would continue to
functionproperly, correct?
 
[somewhere I saw the term "downstream" nodes was used, and I am not clear what that meant in the context of a
mesh-connectedgroup] 
 

Thanks again

It's a mesh.

Once joined, it doesn't matter what the join node was, all nodes are equal.

Each node replicates to all other nodes in an undefined order determined by network timing etc.
