Demanding perfection for a system as dangerous as recall is not silly.

It’s like keeping an armed nuclear bomb in the center of a city at all times and being like “hey, it’s ok that it’s activation sequence isn’t perfect, it probably won’t go off”.

The solution to make it perfect is to not install the nuke/recall at all.

Obligatory mention that for 20 years the launch code for nukes in the US was 00000000.

Even nuclear technology isn’t perfect, yet people are pushing for it in spite of the dangers.

Is the solution to give it up completely?

Please.
