Theoretically that is possible and a non CM binkp node is not against the
rules. But it is against common sense. Binkp connectibility requires an
internet connection and these days internet connetions are up 24/7. It takes
EFFORT to configure a binkp system for non CM operation, it strongy reduces
connectivity and there are no benefits that I can see. 

Cheers, Michiel
