WTF?  Elaboration needed if this is supposed to be Yet Another Analogy (YAA).  I recognize your email name from 
previous NANOG threads, so I assume it's not accidental or spam.

If it is YAA, I'm on the side of the network engineer having to deal with this type of management methodology.  I've 
seen it in telefant mgmt.

who's side are you on?

Just before answering think about the opportunities and threats before consider having sex! You just need to know how 
to protect yourself. Not to everyone’s taste but pregnancy can be prevented after intercourse by taking emergency 
contraceptive pills (EC). Other chose paracetamol- apparently is a painkiller that lowers high temperature. 

Provided that you take the correct dose at the right intervals, paracetamol is relatively safe. An overdose is 
dangerous.

you might not get this .....but going to bed late has an huge impact on our health.

If a main issue has dependencies then the main issue has to be resolved. Hopefully, you've seen that all good things 
have a dark side,
