In the event of a critical bug in a supermajority client leading to the finalization of an invalid chain during a fork, the validators running a supermajority client will:

• Be considered as inactive on the valid chain, and suffer from an inactivity leak
• Be slashed if they doubly attest to blocks on the valid chain & invalid chain
• Get stuck in the valid chain's exit queue (due to the churn limit) while continue losing ETH from inactivity leak
• Risk losing majority of their staked ETH so that their stake represent less than 1/3 of the total ETH staked on Ethereum

• Slashing Penalty
• What happens when a majority client finalizing an invalid chain
• Yes, you really can lose all your ETH if you stake with Geth

Client diversity help Ethereum to become more resilient when a critical bug or vulnerability affecting a single minority client doesn't impact the entire network.
