Perfect demonstration of the fallacies in action! If you were used to developing applications on a self contained platform you would think something like “sure, if it fails the user can try again”

On a distributed system the user can only try again if the platform has remained stable, the failure is transient (*) and they have (crucially) have been given the information to retry.

The platform that provides a stable environment for the user to just try again has been built on these principles.

(*) there is one administrator assumes it is within the user’s power to resolve the issue
