I guess one of the central arguments (that we don't actually need to prepare for the worst case scenario) isn't wrong but we really don't know what to expect when this all goes to shit. Are they really hoping they can put their head in the sand doing the bare minimum and then go to the courts when it wasn't enough?

Personally, I've no confidence that we've accurately mapped the worst case scenario at all - I fear it'll be much worse than we imagine (but I'm that far from starting a suicide cult, so don't take my advice! )
