You are correct, but also when you look at the aggregate of their behavior and goals (both stated and implied) you have to reach the conclusion that they WANT to use the bunker. Or want a scenario in which it becomes useful.

The scary part is that you might be wrong, they may not even realize they're causing it and are just stuck in a loop of "number go up"

Yeah, I feel like most of them are stuck in 'number go up', but I also think that the desire to make your investment 'worth it' gets stronger the more money you pour into a bunker system.

Looking at stock markets, very few numbers are going up
