I know. My point is that multiple clients make the network LESS resilient. Moments like this prove it, as the network lost 11% of nodes until it was fixed. Satoshi was correct, multiple implementations are prone to failure, not resilient.

People quickly switched to the second-most popular implementation, and the network kept running without interruption until the popular client was fixed eight hours later.
