Hm, well things that are "overthought" would simply introduce a
helpful redundancy in the system itself, allowing for backup
trajectories of edges to reach the proper nodes in case of
catastrophic failure.
After all, any system that can be subject to a cascading
failure, is NOT a properly designed system. You _need_
independent pathways that only pass messages and NOT be
dependent upon parallel processes... because then, well, they're
not really parallel are they? They're shared.
