I'm very familiar with the post-mortem, most of this was available since March
Since you like to quote things that are unrelated to the prior things you quoted, let's continue listing them:
The reservoir for the palisades wasn't filled due to a different form of incompetence, so even if the firefighters were there they would run out of water
The pump system in the palisades didn't have enough pressure for large scale use, multiple fire hydrants would have resulted in the same lack of water
Now let's go back to what was mentioned earlier, and the thing we actually agree on, the standard operating procedure needs to change - and here is where we disagree: with urgency due to the likelihood of weather events.
This whole thread I specifically avoided saying "its due to climate change" selecting words to avoid your deflections, and yet your whole identity is based on making sure nobody even discusses the possibility it might be.
There are also smouldering fires in LA quite often. The way LAFD deals with them needs to change.... due to the likelihood of weather events. The palisades fire smouldering would have been fine without the hurricane force winds, but it wasn't, and we always have smouldering fires left alone by LAFD once they get to that state.

Weather events didn't create this fire - a human did, and governmental failures stacked to turn it into a disaster. Somehow your take-away is "climate change" nonetheless...
