I'm not a dev or an expert and won't claim to be or answer anything related to it. Just saying, there should be some way to stress test this stuff. If they can't, put a big warning in bold to warn people that it runs the risk of their characters being stuck in other DCs. That way, no one is shocked or angry that they can't go home or potentially lose access to their characters temporarily. It's a risk they're informed about.

If you'd like to answer your own question though, be my guest.
