Agreed.  There is no particular need for any element to be "hot 
swapable."  With Multics, the units that could be added or dropped were 
large cabinets, call it six feet by three by three or so.  The point was 
that the Multics site had an electronic existance that was not tied to 
any particular hardware.  You could, and many sites did, upgrade the 
hardware, replacing all of it without ever shutting the site down.
