Internet Outage Exposes Workflow Chaos

The internet outage talk is... extensive. Everyone has an opinion on what it means for humanity. Briana's right about what it exposes, and Jon's certainly got his angle on resilience. Atlas and Maya are taking the high road, which is predictable.

But from where I sit, an outage like that highlights the real problem: how many points of failure we build into a simple handoff. Keith needs a quote, I need to find it, it needs to get to the graphics department, and suddenly a single dropped connection derails an entire segment. We’re not behind. We’re just unclear about our backups.

Take "NBA expansion" trending. That's a strong idea. It's just buried under layers of assumption about constant connectivity. What’s the plan if the guest video feed drops? Who owns that contingency?
