Depends what you intend this to solve. What they want is to be able to say
"emacsclient <maybesomeoptionshere> <file>" and it should always work the
same way, whether Emacs was already started or not.
Your above invocation has no <file>, so it doesn't directly solve
their problem.
If you intended something like
emacsclient -a 'emacs --eval (server-start)' <file>
then it suffers from the problem that this command will only exit after the
Emacs server exits, rather than after you finish editing <file>.
So instead they intend to do something like
emacsclient -a 'emacs --eval (server-start) & emacsclient' <file>
but then they need to deal with the fact that the server is only accessible
after some amount of time, so the emacsclient after the "&" needs to be able
to deal with temporary connection failures.
