"I'm perplexed, then, to see so many people gleefully celebrate the collapse of an institution..."
Huh? I live well outside SV, and have for over two decades, and I have encountered zero examples of this. Are people inside SV "gleefully celebrating"? So far, no one I have mentioned this to had heard of it happening before I told them.
