Comment on Is there a practical reason data centers have to sprawl outward instead of upward?

Most obvious reason that comes to mind is cooling. All the HVAC in the world isnt going to be able to stop 50 floors of server rack heat from spilling onto the 51st floor, etc.

This is also a nightmare for fire suppression systems.
