=== Do not allow stale shards to automatically be promoted to primary (STATUS: ONGOING)

-In some scenarios, a succession of multiple isolated nodes can cause a stale replica shard to be promoted to primary

-leading to a loss of acknowledged indexing operations. Work is underway ({GIT}14671[#14671]) to prevent the automatic

+In some scenarios, after loss of all valid copies, a stale replica shard can be assigned as a primary. This can lead to
