They haven't chosen to just "not do that". They've chosen to pre-emptively cover their arse against a risk less likely than an asteroid hitting Earth by just nuking the apps. There's another thread on HN about this right now - I don't know how these people can like, exist, in this world, with every one of the hairs on their head individually combed into a perfect slick. Can you even eat breakfast without worrying about some tail risk? Too much HN for today, methinks. I'm so glad that the normal people I interact with in the world aren't this wanky (I don't mean you or other posters here, but the bureautwats that actually implement this stuff)
