Yes, but our methods of understanding either brain or particle collisions is still outside in. We figure out the functional mapping between input and output. We don't know these systems inside out. E.g. in particle collisions (scatteri

We have sensible reasons to suggest this in both the cases : simple and complex. If GCP is composed of 10-30 services (hypothetically) then keeping 5-10 employees whose job is ensure mega deletes are safe is not too much of a cost. If GCP i

All mega deletes should be authorised. A human person should type in the word "delete" and then only the action should take place. Not doing this is like the decision is taken by VOID created by complex interacting systems.
