With twelve consumers of the database provision, one provider down would be
twelve conditions for one fault and twelve gates failed for something none of
them did. A consumer's check names the provision it exercises; while the
provider composed for it — its recorded binding, or the machine its credential
comes from — is unhealthy on the record, what that check finds raises nothing
of its own: the provider's condition lists it as waiting and is urgent, and
the consumer's gate waits, past its bound too, rather than putting a build
back. Liveness findings and checks naming no provision stay the consumer's own,
and once the provider is healthy a consumer still failing is raised at once.
