10 machines with a 10% chance of failure roughly equal to 100 machines with a 1% of failure. I think confusingly worded, as n increases the reliability of each node has to increase correspondingly to get the convergence. I'm not sure what real system this reflects, but I suppose it's an indication of at what point the problems of scale will bite (if you know your rough failure rate).
