The Ethics of Protocol

• there is a difference between a system without collisions and a system with many collisions.
  
• collisions are events that occur that the protocol is establish to prevent or minimalize.
• well written protocol considers a wide array of problems, ranked (since some are missed) according to some ratio of fatal (some process fails) to common (high instance of probability).
• well written protocols do not embellish their basic task with tasks suited to other protocols
• there is no correct method in a protocol, only incorrect ones by failures and inefficiencies in the protocol
• One cannot measure one protocol by the considerations of evaluation of another.
