    Description

      Consider the following scenario

      node1: performs a remote get
      node2 (backup owner): receives and replies to the remote get with v1
      node1: receives the repli and store in L1_ key => v1
      node2 (backup owner): commits a new value (v2) for the key (i.e. processes a commit command)
      node3 (primary owner): sends the invalidation (but not for node1 because it hasn't received the remote get yet) and commits a new value (v2) for the key (i.e. processes a commit command) 
      node3 (primary owner): replies to the remote get with v2
      node1: ignores the reply because it used the node2 reply
      

      conclustion: node1 keeps the old value stored in L1.
