Don't let perfection be the enemy of good. I'm not suggesting we're don't have a really high bar, but 100% is just unreasonable.

    It's also the only acceptable level.

    Planes are mostly on auto pilot these days, where most accidents are actually due to pilot error. Will you never go on a single flight for the rest of your life unless it's somehow 100% (not 99%, not 99.9%, but 100%) safe?
