I agree. It doesn’t matter if you give an inexperienced person a hammer or a saw — they’ll still screw it up.

My biggest pet peeve is they NO ONE ever does failure modeling.

I swear everyone builds things assuming it will work perfectly. Then when you mention if one part fails, it will completely bring down everything, they’ll say that it’s a 1 in a million chance. Yeah, the problem isn’t that it’s unlikely, it’s that when it does happen, you’ve perfectly designed your system to destroy itself.
