 I've yet to see a counterexample involving a software-based edge router in a

 an availability hit - apologies if I've missed one, mind.
 
 Your arguments revolve around My Ford Pinto's gas tank once exploded on me 
 and it happened to other people too, therefore all inexpensive cars have 
 unsafe gas tanks.
 
 Actually, it's more along the lines of, I've seen multiple accidents 
 involving multiple brands/models of economy-class automobiles in which the 
 passengers were grievously-injured or worse, while also having observed 
 passengers walking away from similar accidents in similar circumstances 
 involving heavier, more sturdily-built vehicles.

Really?

Under the assumption that I'm meant to be fulfilling the role of the lamb, I
