Adding complexities to a system might in a way increase the stops at which fail safes that can act as a door stop for a failure to get out of hand. On the other hand it will also acts as another vulnerability for said failure to occur. The episode greatly elaborate on this idea by using case studies from the Oscars to nuclear power plants.
