Thanks for the simplicity Clarke. "If you’re seeing queues, delays, or mounting stress — don’t just push harder." it can be difficult when there is pressure just to fix things and many times, no immediate action is much better than action. This can be difficult to explain to stakeholders...
Mark I like that very much, Bottlenecks are the speed limit...
So It makes me wonder...what is the speed limit of the Universe? The speed of Light !! Yes this comes from Einstein's Relativity Theory which to date is still one off the most advanced and reputed that we know.
What is the corolary of this... The speed of light is our bottleneck, I would call it our constraint as in TOC.
So the human bottleneck in an Universal and Cosmic scale is THE SPEED OF LIGHT!
How can we increase space trips if the maximum we go is near 130,000 km/h (with the help of gravity)??
Remeber light goes at : 300,000 Km/s (yes its correct its per second)
This is : 300,000 Km/s x 3600 s/h = 1.080.000,000 Km/h or 1.080 Milions Km/h
So our present best (and 130,000 Km is an incredible speed) is about ... 0,012% of the speed of Light !
We have a long way to go to improve our constraint!

Welcome to Substack, Clarke!
Bottlenecks are the speed LIMIT. Force a system to operate outside its limits and you get malfunctions.
