For context, “workers strike pipeline and cause explosion” is so common that there’s annually-divided lists on Wikipedia. However, this uncovers a critical flaw in PG&E’s deployment: the nearest automated shutoff valve feeds the entire city, because – presumably to skimp on spending – no closer shutoff valve existed.

PG&E may not be at fault for causing the strike, but they are at fault for the bad design that fed the fire afterwards.
