 Replying to [comment:14 davidsarah]:

 H, report that the file is retrievable but unhealthy. In any case report
 what |M| is.

 Okay, but why this one?

 We definitely need to classify health into several types:
 ''unrecoverable'', ''100%'' ({{{servers_of_happiness}}}>={{{M}}}), and
 ''servers-of-happiness-satisfying' ({{{servers_of_happiness}}}>={{{H}}})
 (needs a better name! ''"healthy"'' ?).

 Do we also need another type to show that {{{servers_of_happiness}}} >=
 {{{K}}}?
