So do you mean setting tokens for only one node (one of the seed node) is fair
enough?
I can not see any problem with this mechanism (only one manual token
assignment at cluster set up), but the article was also trying to set up a
balanced cluster and the way that it insist on doing manual tok
That line is only relevant for when you're starting your cluster and
you need to define your initial tokens in a non-random way. Random
token distribution doesn't work very well when you only use 4 tokens.
Once you get the cluster set up you don't need to specify tokens
anymore, you can just use

I just read this article by tlp:

Noticed that:
>>We will need to set the tokens for the seed nodes in each rack manually. This
>>is to prevent each node from randomly calculating its own token ranges
