Or as my boss likes to say, it takes a lot to grow a redwood tree and after you are done you can't turn it into a blue whale. So you just sit there making sure no one cuts it down.

pfft and then they come back up, like rebooting your machine. You can cause a temporary crash these days not a permanent shutdown. People just don't get how hyperconnected things are. Everyone takes a hit if there are shutdowns. The 2008 financial crisis was the first demonstrator. Things are just too big to fail.
