You can't *rely* on it, but you have to plan for it. Because **** happens when you least expect it. It's called "worst case scenario" or "Murphy's law"; you have to plan to suffer it. Sounds like you might be interested in the "what if" books. They're collections of short essays by different authors. Example: https://tinyurl.com/gl8yy2m https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_If%3F_(essays) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_If%3F_2 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_I...erican_History I have quite a few, but many are so outlandish they might as well be pure science fiction. Besides when have stuff happen in real life like "lone torpedo dropped by obsolete in a near storm hits rudder", who needs that kind of fiction?...
