As someone that lives close to Yellowstone I am personally fine with either outcome. Less than 5% of the upper lava chamber is molten and less than 2% of the lower magma chamber is molten. There are differing numbers by different scientists on the next major eruption but they are all well beyond 10,000 years. This is why we do not get the regular eruptions seen in Hawaii. Hawaii's lava chambers are over 50% molten.
