Q: I had a network “glitch” that led to my using SLONIK FAILOVER(7) to fail over to an alternate node. The failure wasn a disk problem that would corrupt databases; why do I need to rebuild the failed node from scratch?

The action of SLONIK FAILOVER(7) is to abandon the failed node so that no more Slony-I activity goes to or from that node. As soon as that takes place, the failed node will progressively fall further and further out of sync.
