I understand the director ADVERTISES the resolution of the IP to a
specific MAC address, which is why the clients cannot respond to ARP
requests. I understand how the service is supposed to appear to the
clinet, regardless of which realserver is involved.

So for whatever interface they use for communicating on the Internet,
they use that same interface to talk with the director? If the
realservers need to communicate over the Internet, they need some more
information than a single IP address that will never marry a MAC
address. For LVS-DR, it is necessary to have 2+ physical interfaces?

Read it. When I learn more about it, I'll re-write it. It's a bit
confusing, because the terminology does not match up with what is said
in the HOWTO and such.

End clients will be regular TCP/IP hosts.
Thanks!
