> This is why systems are breaking down before our eyes and why the breakdowns will spread with alarming rapidity due the tightly bound structure of complex systems. Is there actual evidence for this over the long term? I have seen a lot of articles on this, but while they are full of anecdotes of supposed system breakdown, many of them are clearly not new issues. For example, the 737 Max issues have been mentioned repeatedly, but plane makers hiding defects that later kill is not new.
