- losteverything 10y agoThanks Is this analogy accurate? I have one road to get home. It got blocked so I create 2 more roads. I now have 3 Roads to get home. All 3 become blocked. So now I have to make another road. More roads is redundancy and requires capital. The roads become unblocked but I now must expect future road blocks.
