I personally remember thinking the planes would be hard to control, like I never pictured just… oops, suddenly these wings don’t work with the laws of nature, straight down to the ground. I was a child when it all went down, so, I don’t remember if it was people actually saying it would happen, just over exaggerating, or what. Since some take things literally though, it should not have been put that way, I could definitely see it being fear mongering, and that’s not good.

There were things that could have been affected though, so one part being put wrong on purpose or not doesn’t mean, we should have ignored it.

Ah, go figure! I should have looked that one up as well. Glad to hear they’re still working on it, maybe I’ll go read up on it more. Thanks for the info!

I had no idea there was a term for this. That’s quite handy, thank you.

I mean, it didn’t happen due to all the hard work put in to fix the issue.

Kind of like how people are like, what ever happened to the hole in the ozone layer? The chemicals causing it were banned. I don’t think the concerns about what could have happened should be ignored, as what if no one put in the work, like they had? You know, kind of like climate change?
