I love this on so many levels.. going back 5/10 years (or at least pre-cloud) when you'd have a bunch of long-lived servers, each named, each with it's own quirks etc. and would begin to have their own personalality.
Then the 'cloud' came along and blew all that away with autoscaling and completely non-persistence of machines... this _really_ captures it in my eyes, where we're now managing large farms of desposable infrastructure. It shows the idea of culling large amounts of it and scaling, but still brings back the 'personal' feel that the servers are living things with feelings (。◕‿◕。).
Also, throwJan22's creeper idea for chaos monkey implementation is fantastic (and I guess not a particuarly hard thing to implement at this point :P )
If you could break the fences between the namespaces and just blow open any network policies between them would be great :D
