disaster-recovery-diverges-despite-unified-platform-model

Status: IN

Disaster recovery is the deepest point of topology divergence in the otherwise unified platform model: standalone clusters use etcd snapshot/restore, hosted control planes require separate encryption key backup and etcdutl (not etcdctl), and SNO accepts downtime — contradicting the platform's goal of operational uniformity across topologies

Justifications

depth-6 — the unified platform model (d5) claims operational consistency, but DR procedures (d3) prove topology forces irreducible operational divergence in the most critical scenario

Depends on (SL): disaster-recovery-varies-by-topology, platform-model-with-topology-variants
