It means that it doesn't currently make any difference what you set -
because quorum is (currently) never lost.
In the future, we'll probably add a tie-breaker function, then this
won't be the only option for 2-node clusters.
So, when we do this, or when you add another node to the cluster, then
it might matter.
But, until then, it doesn't matter at all.
