Twitter has the ability to create sudden panics - we saw that a year ago with the toilet paper issue being referenced. I agree that a lot of what happens on Twitter never escapes the bubble of Twitter - but that toilet paper panic was swept up by mainstream news and echoed across the nation. Being able to incite a panic can be extremely tactically valuable if you can, for instance, leverage that panic to move a whole bunch of product at a mark up or weaken a critical system at a critical time.
