 In the sense that this is exactly how multisite prevents .htaccess from
 being rewritten, yes.

 and running again so I can pound WP on IIS again.
 It isn't as far as I can tell, which leads me to make two observations.
 One, I'm not sure how it wasn't reported until now. That part is very
 surprising. Two, this sounds like a critical bug that would prevent anyone
 from using IIS with multisite, as any hard flush of the rules would reset
 the web.config file inappropriately.
