That's a great point. Potentially they could implement regular replacement of nodes to obtain the benefits of de-fragmented pools.

That would be too yolo for my taste, but the guys were under time pressure due to the rather sudden performance degradation. Nodes replacement would probably buy some time, to allow the upgrade to be done in 2 phases.
