Why
When node A becomes the leader, it still takes a few exchanges with followers to allow cluster changes again.
Concurrently, the testcase blocks traffic between A and other nodes to simulate a network partition. If this happens after A becomes the leader but before cluster changes are permitted again, the testcase will never succeed and will eventually abort with:
How
Before blocking traffic, we wait for cluster changes to be permitted again on node A.
