    You can absolutely push changes to a system that you don’t actually understand.

    You might be right, but consider the alternative: “someone thinks that they’re so much smarter than the people who originally designed, implemented, and maintained a system integral to the functioning of modern society that they dismiss out of hand the idea of caution when dealing with it in situ.”

    If someone of that description were in this situation, what do you suppose their behavior would be?
