Description

As Stefania explains in this JIRA comment, SimpleSnitch does not implement IEndpointSnitch.sortByProximity(localhost, liveendpoints), so a query for data on the coordinator may query other nodes. That seems like unnecessary work to me, and on that note, Stefania woonders in this JIRA comment - should this be considered a bug?

Stefania, I'm assigning you here – could you find the right people to involve in this discussion?
