"Same thing happens when the emergency cord is pulled (except
on new tech trains, where it is merely a "polite request"
to stop the train) "
Speaking of emegency requests and politeness on technology, there was once, years ago, a parody of programming languages published in a journal for programmers (it was one of those magazines read by COBOL jockeys), Among other comedic items, the author proposed new high-level commands for a programming language. In addition to the If/then/Else/Or/And commands, he proposed an "Or Else!" command, as in:

If Condition = A Then Do;
Else if condition - B then Do;
Or Else!
