Currently, ReplicationCoordinatorImpl::_doReplSetReconfig takes in two flags: a force flag that enables/disables force reconfig (which skips some safety checks), and a skipSafetyChecks flag that skips a set of safety checks which is neither:

• a subset of the force reconfig safety checks

• nor a superset of the force reconfig safety checks

As a result, we have four different combinations of reconfig safety options, and it isn't clear which checks I can expect to be enabled/disabled from the flags used:

https://github.com/10gen/mongo/blob/gitpushjoe/SERVER-114075/src/mongo/db/repl/replication_coordinator_impl.h?plain=1#L1766-L1773

    /*
     * Performs the replica set reconfig procedure. Certain consensus safety checks are omitted when
     * either 'force' or 'skipSafetyChecks' are true.
     */
    Status _doReplSetReconfig(OperationContext* opCtx,
                              GetNewConfigFn getNewConfig,
                              bool force,
                              bool skipSafetyChecks);

We should either expand the documentation to specify which safety checks skipSafetyChecks refers to or implement a better design.
