    I agree, there should be a sanity check as I understand that they are
    within close proximity of each other. Two ships slipping anchors and
    causing cable breaks in the same area is odd, but if there's a storm
    in the area, that would not be that much of a surprise. There should
    be some logic to the madness.

    I think that the moral of the story is that "more" operators should
    try to better understand what diversity means beyond the metro. The
    challenge is getting the information. The Teleography series of
    internet/sub maps are interesting. They don't demonstrate diversity
    though, since they show figurative routing. Those nice and straight
    lines are a pipe dream.
