The designation of "supply chain risk" is viral in nature because no GRC team will dare take such a risk within their supply chain because most customers add BOM requirements in contracts so this will end up falling under those already. There's a lot of backchanneling going on between Emil and Dario because everyone's in the same circles but it's all for naught.
