I'm very much a proponent of careful planning and going into things with our eyes open. Sadly, I don't think we are in a position to know what we don't know or even find it out at this point because we are on a compressed timeline.

It's like worrying about the effects of fire retardant from the fire department's trucks, when your house is on fire.... and the other option in the equation is a flamethrower

Make no mistake, im not saying we should stop. Far from it. Only that we should have had these discussions 30 years ago, and don't be soo quick to dismiss the next tragedy to focus on this one - we just repeat the cycle.

You're right, the timeline is compressed from the 50 years we "thought" we had, down to literally months, and I don't think people actually realise that. Too bad most targets are 2050, 2060....
