Nature presents the efficiency vs security dilemma almost everywhere you look. One is always traded off for the other, especially between the short term and long term. Efficiency lowers costs (especially in the short term), but increases risks in the long term (less resiliency/options when things go wrong). Things going wrong can also mean a business with pricing power deciding to increase profit margins (and/or reduce quality/quantity of services).
