I can't find any mention of anything that actually USES that property.  
Maybe autoscaling does, but I haven't found any evidence supporting 
that.  I'm not sure that has any meaning outside the initial collection 
creation.

If you want fewer replicas, just delete one.  If the cluster doesn't 
automatically recreate it, then that will be the end of it.

Thanks,
Shawn
