Yeah I mean look at Uniswap. Billions of dollars in liquidity locked up and it is immutable. Software development in this context is much more similar to hardware engineering, the cost of rolling back is exponentionally more than rolling put a django app or whatever. But weve been doing this type of engineering for millenia, what happens if there is a bug in the design of a bridge? Its cratastophic, yeah so what do you do to prevent that? Should we not have bridges?



I think it’s a little different because people do regularly maintain bridges without replacing them and rerouting all traffic. But I get your drift. What a crazy thought to have these completely autonomous programs moving billions in value.
