My Warrior has non-redundant cables operating the control surfaces. As
long as metal continues to obey physical laws and they get looked at
once a year, I have few worries. However, there are people who suggest
FBW is in the future for light aircraft. That worries me. How is a 777
flight control system going to scale to a Warrior? Is there going to
be some kind of cost-saving breakthrough or are they going to cut
corners?

They are going to cut corners. That's the objective of most FBW
systems.
