Along similar lines - are there swoops that aren't fell? Do we do anything in a fell manner that isn't swooping?

Power-wrought, not necessarily heron-marked, but in any case it gives me mild anxiety that we won't see balefire...

I still put that at low odds, to be clear. But I think we're going to see Trump dipping his toe into the Andrew Jackson "john marshall has made his decision" waters a bit. I can imagine he's excited at the idea.

I think the court might be inclined to let this fly for different reputational reasons - that if Trump went ahead and leveraged the executive to *practically* deny citizenship to this class of person (no passports, etc), the court would be exposed as toothless.

I think if you take patching, and therefore regular single-host downtime, as an invariant - don't you need load balancing and/or API-driven scale-out/scale-in at a minimum if you don't want to have planned outages?
