// Client nodes discover which region they're closest to, advertise
// that "home" DERP region (previously called "home node", when there

// connect to other regions as necessary to communicate with peers
// advertising other regions as their homes.

	// but not to other regions. That said, each user/domain
	// should get a the same preferred node order, so if all nodes
	// for a user/network pick the first one (as they should, when
	// things are healthy), the inter-cluster routing is minimal
	// to zero.
