This sounds effectively like: validate my inventory and allocations
at compute node start, correcting them as required (including the
kind of migration stuff related to nested). Is that right?

That's something I'd like to be the norm. It takes us back to a sort

Or am I missing something (forgive me, I've been on holiday).

If we can do it, I agree that being not evil is good.
