I see. I guess my experience from the software development world is that developers are nearly always overly optimistic about nearly every project, and risk analysis and mitigation is the part that is lacking the most. So the questions that have the most impact on the success of a project are of the type “what can go wrong?”. Not necessarily x-risk stuff, just your run-of-the-mill terrorism, incompetence, conspiracy, market collapse, resource shortage and such. But I guess there is enough talk of this already.
