This gets into oversight mechanisms. While there are some, I would say that they are lagging behind in the development of these complex systems. I would be particularly careful when you develop highly tightly coupled systems, so that when something goes wrong, the damage can spread quickly. Allow for some buffers in there. That's not the nature of competitive supply chains, because speed is primary, but if we take a longer strategic view, then we need to slow down a bit and pay closer attention.
