This is extremely weird because today I was reading about how the US military is upping its logistics power in asia to counter China invading Taiwan.

And the phrase they used was a shift from “just in time” logistics to “just in case” logistics.

So this is the first time I’m seeing this phrase and now this article uses it again.

If you have read anything about logistics in the last few year, you would have realized that shifting everything to a just in time logistics is probably a bad idea in case of disruption. It's a spectrum, and it shows by analogy why you want a broad range of knowledge, not just hyper focused on your career.
