I don’t understand the point of this theory. Not having safety controls is bad, but having practices so bad that workers violate N layers of safety protocol in the course of operation is also bad. They’re both problems in need of regulation.

The failure rate of an individual layer of Swiss cheese should be bounded under most circumstances but not all. So you should probably have more layers when hazards cannot be eliminated.
