Security is a funny mistress... never satisfied... but indispensable... ever-growing maintenance costs... but still worth every penny in theory... (the "theory" is the tricky part.)

About 30 years ago I was working in the offshoreoil industry on a semi submersible drilling rig down in the pontoons with 3 other guys . The inspector shows us the job we have to do and says in case of a fire push this red button with no safety cover on it which would activate a 6 inch thick very small round door with a ram of about 100 plus tons and the Halon gas fire suppressant . I put my hand over the button and mentioned that I could run a hundred meters in 10 seconds but there was not a hope in hell I could make that door without being snapped like a twig , and never mind the rest of the crew that was there , I also brought up to the inspector that we breathed oxogen as my hand played dangerously beside this button , I joked with him are you ready to take one for the team .That cost the oil industry many many millions and I never worked offshore again
Never argue with a idiot as you will get dragged down to his level and beaten with his vast experience
