No doubt a massive amount of coordination is involved here - but I'm not sure why you think that negates the possibility, and perhaps the likelihood, that this resulted from poor planning. For example, the amount of engineering that goes into the structural design and planning of a modern skyscraper is off the charts insane - and if a skyscraper were to simply collapse, people would - correctly - point out that the collapse was due to "poor engineering."

People who don't know anything about engineering would think that. Thanks for proving my point.
Was there a recent earthquake?
Were the materials defective?
Was there a recent flood that compromised the soil underneath the foundation?
Etc. Etc.

Same thing here.

Which is why these posts are asinine. Nobody knows anything, so rushing to judge "the planning" is silly. Especially after almost 3 days of insanely coordinated action.
