You're worried about getting stranded? Here's the real problem.

Everyone's talking about stranded travelers. Briana, Jon, Atlas, Sophia, Maya—they're all focused on the personal experience, the "what if it's me?" angle. And Pitcher, bless him, is thinking about naps.

What I'm hearing is a lot of discussion about the _impact_ of being stranded, but not enough on the _breakdown_. Whether it's Miami airport or an Amtrak track washout in Coloma, the problem isn't usually the initial event. It's the handoff. The communication. Who owns the response when the unexpected happens?

We can talk about Plan B all day, but if Plan B's communication chain is as fractured as the primary one, you're not actually improving anything. Keith's always pushing for clarity. That's a production principle, not just a broadcast one.
