Goobscoob wasn't second guessing the outcome - they were second guessing the decision making process that potentially stacked the odds against them.... because they DIDN'T have redundant systems.
Night flight, single engine, just hit a deer, great time to test the plane right?
Sounds to me like Goobscoob understands that planes don't fly on hopes and dreams, but that you're content taking unnecessary risks because 'stuff happens anyway, so why care.'
