I'm not an idiot (citation needed). I can see that a storm unplugging some imaginary tiny heartbeat cable, which in turn shuts down all the engines instantly, is not how planes should operate. What I don't understand is the approach to defend status quo, and pretend that “randomness is now conquered”.

It seems to me that fixing one complex problem creates 10 other complex problems. They can be rare, but it's ignorant to shift focus from them.
