When validating redundancy in human systems, test backup paths during normal operations rather than waiting for primary failure, as untested redundancy often fails precisely when needed due to skill atrophy or outdated procedures.
When two systems appear redundant but share a common power source, network segment, authentication service, or human operator, treat them as a single point of failure with cosmetic duplication rather than genuine redundancy.
For critical tool delegations where failure would compromise your effectiveness, maintain periodic unassisted performance of the delegated capability to prevent atrophy of the biological skill, treating the practice as architectural redundancy rather than inefficiency.
