Reminds me of the story about returning planes and bullet holes en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survivorship_bias

- Comment on Larissa Waters named new leader of the Greens 5 months ago:
Good choice. She’s always come across as calm and level headed. Hopeful they can do some good climate relevant negotiations with Labor.
