When I hear things like, "many will not return for a long time, if ever" I think about forests and how wildfires are ultimately a Good ThingĀ® for clearing out crowded ecosystems and paving the way for new growth.

I'm too ignorant of all the moving parts to confidently make that analogy, but I can't help but wonder if this sort of collapse could be a net positive thing. I think there are opportunities here for all the participants, even if some of the incumbents will not survive.
