Based on conversation with Dan in IRC, we decided it might be useful
to clarify that Dan and I are in agreement. It had seemed to me that
he was saying something different from me, but we're both basically
saying "yes, tempest needs to be able to talk to placement to
confirm what it's holding because that's useful sometimes" and "no,
tempest doesn't need to verify the workings of placement api itself".

Which boils out to this:

Yes.
