How often do you have sudden host failures? Especially if you use a half-decent server with redundant components for the DB node?
Once in maybe 10 years?

The node failure rate is much higher than that. On a 1M node cluster of cloud-managed instances (AWS, GCP, Azure, etc.) you'd likely see failures a few times a month, if not more.
