    get alerts from that node that it's not healthy or it not available due to the monitor server not able to communicate with it.

    Which monitor server?

    If this is the case, let's suppose when we rebooted one of the node in the same data center and we had the same network issue during that time we will be in the same loop of cluster going down and coming back as soon as it communicates with node in different data center. Don't you think we have to be ready for this kind of situation or you are expecting the quorum to be up on the last node standing if we change it to node majority?

    You're still missing what I've been saying

    Firstly, if you have one node in DR with a vote and 2 in primary and you reboot a node on primary site then assuming no other issues you'll still have quorum. If you really have a network between sites that is that unstable shouldn't you be resolving that issue, this won't just affect the WSFC but possibly client connectivity too.

    Also, note:

    For a reboot, dynamic quorum will be able to quickly recalculate and adjust so quorum will be maintained, node failures are more of an issue and expose you to cluster outages as the dynamic quorum doesn't have chance to react.
