Perhaps "impossible" is overly dramatic, but "economically impractical" may, in this context (general purpose networked computing), be the same thing.
It seems to me that "five nines" is achieved more often with careful use of definitions, rather than careful engineering. Low-hanging fruit are scheduled maintenance and degraded performance.
Otherwise, wouldn't Tandem have been wildly successful?
