Worth noting that repair may not work, as it’s possible that NONE of the nodes 
with data (for some given row) are no longer valid replicas according to the 
DHT/Tokens, so repair will not find any of the replicas with the data.

Yep.

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7069 - "Prevent operator 
mistakes due to simultaneous bootstrap"

But this doesn't handle your case, where you force joined a bunch of nodes with 
auto_bootstrap=false.

Probably if I were in your case (and realized it immediately) I would 
decommission all nodes and then start again. I probably would not run repair, 
though that would also work. I agree with jeffj down-thread that you should not 
run cleanup.
