I actually think it makes sense for all of these nodes to report the sum
of all of their children’s allocated sizes.
If a quorum node has three children with allocated sizes of 3 MB, 1 MB,
and 2 MB, respectively (totally possible if some have explicit zeroes
and others don’t; it may also depend on the protocol, the filesystem,
etc.), then I think it makes most sense to report indeed 6 MB for the
quorum subtree as a whole. What would you report? 3 MB?

I don’t, because everywhere we don’t want this functionality, we still
need to choose a child. This has to be done by the driver anyway.
