gollark: It won't go well *at all*.
gollark: The grid here noticeably breaks for a few hours every year or so, presumably because there's a lot of redundancy due to lots of components in it. If we had a smaller-scale one, it would either have to be really overbuilt or fail when it was cloudy for too many weeks or something like that, but it would be free of cascading-failure-y problems.
gollark: Less area/stuff to spread problems over.
gollark: Dunbar's number is an incredibly handwavey estimate, but I think the concept is sound.
gollark: Revolutions have always worked well, so this is a good idea.
