What's the worst-case scenario again?

  Better heat conduction cools the magma below, causing it to "fall"-flow downwards, while somewhere else nearby, hotter magma must go up. Just a assumption, neither geologist nor fluid-dynamics-expert. Its a turbulent system though, so any prediction is futile :D

    Would it be too much to hope for a series of cascading failures leading to a kilometer-high fountain of lava? Asking for a friend.

      Just imagine you could control this process- you could form a magma jet cutter and tame and aim it at a volcano. You could hold the world ransom for 100 billion dollars- and all you need are some geothermal power-plants. But, no, not again super villainy, not one day at a time. I will not use super villainy today, no matter what happens. I can do this. We can do this. Super villainy does not control me. I am moving forward right now.
