I see you've never been in charge of risk mitigation measures. I do them as part of my job and am tasked with scoring risks and possible mitigation responses. Sometimes the mitigation is so effective that it can eliminate the risk but other times it is practically useless. Decision makers then need to asses those risks and possible mitigations and weigh them against a million other factors.
