>way out of a significant dependability problem

This is not an actual problem. It is a made up problem that acts as honey attracting people to obsess over it.

It's not my problem. It's not anyone's problem. That's my point. It's also not something that's a little further beyond the horizon or the next weakest link that attackers may target next.
